Will this computer work?
Is this laptop good for Sims 2, 3, 4 & their expansions (not all), and other miscellaneous games like Stardew Valley, etc? https://www.techradar.com/reviews/pc-mac/laptops-portable-pcs/laptops-and-n...

Insufficient CPU, Graphics and RAM so the answer is no.
The review is several years old so it isn't even for sale anymore.
Look for specs like these:
High end
CPU = Intel I5/I7 generation 7 or better AMD Ryzen 8 or better
RAM = 8GB DDR4 or more
HDD = 250GB SSD with secondary HDD for storage.
Graphics = Geforce 1060 6GB or equivalent AMD card
Budget
CPU = Intel I5/I7 generation 5 or better I3 generation 8 AMD Ryzen 5 or better
RAM = 8GB DDR4
HDD = 1TB Hybrid drive
Graphics = Geforce 1050 or Geforce 1060 3GB or equivalent AMD card
If you find one you like and want an opinion feel free to post a link.
How about this one? (I see the specs are different, and I found Amazon selling them)

Then it will do very well.
Edit: It has come to my attention that The sims 3 does not like the MX150 graphics card. or the U (ultra low power) processor range.
One more question, will that mean I'll have to run it on lower quality, or not at all?
It means that the Sims 3 may run poorly or not at all on this configuration. I don't believe that graphics quality matters much here.
