Will either of these Lenovo laptops run the sims 4?

I want to buy a laptop that isn’t too expensive that will run the sims 4. I don’t need top of the range graphics so I was wondering if either of these laptops would run the game

lenovo ideapad slim 3

    @Beccabubblez69  This laptop (the 16 GB version with the i5-1235U) is a step above the other two in terms of performance, so it would be the best option of the three even if the other two were available.  Its graphics chip should run Sims 4 on medium-high to high settings even with all current packs installed.

    If you'd like me to look at other options, feel free to link other websites, and I'll see what's available there and would run Sims 4 well.  But if you're happy with this laptop, it's about as good as an option you'd see for under €600 or so.

    By the way, you're not bothering me at all.  I enjoy talking about laptops and hardware with people.

    @Beccabubblez69  Both of these should run Sims 4, all current packs included, on low-medium to medium graphics settings.  I checked the second site and didn't find anything better, but if you'd like me to look at other stores, feel free to link them.  I might be able to find better hardware for the same price, but I'm not sure.

    @Beccabubblez69  The second one, with the Ryzen 5 7520U, has a graphics chip that's a little faster, so all else being equal, I'd get that one.  But it's not so much faster that that should overrule other considerations, including price if that's a significant difference.  So if you have no preference, get the second, and if you like the first for other reasons, get that one.

    I bought that one this morning so Thank you so much for the help , I was thinking it would be a lot better than the other 2 I had previously shown so maybe it was a good thing the other two were out of stock 😊
