@puzzlezaddict Hi, thank you again for your help. I have seen those options you commented and I think the price range is good (I don't think I alone can afford the gaming one but still a good option). If I understood well, those two you said are good options? If so, can you please recommend the best of the two.

There are also 2 other sites of very famous big shops that have, not the same search system as the one from before, but has some of the characteristics.

Have a good day.

@puzzlezaddict Hi, thanks again for your help. If I understood correctly, those two laptops you said, are good for running (all the things I want to do) the game with the exp/packs? I think, I can't completely afford the gaming one but is a good option. Between the two you recommended, which one do you think is the best?

I have two more pages that are from good shops and have similar search filters.

@puzzlezaddict You think those two are good for all the things I want to do and play the game with all the expansion and packs? Which of the two would you recommend?

The gaming one is a little bit out of my range but I will still have it in mind if I can't find a cheaper one.
Yes, there are more sites with similar search filters

Hey, I’m looking for a laptop that can run the sims 4 with all expansions game packs and stuff packs. Is this a good option or should i look for something else?

@24maddie  That's not a bad laptop for the price: its graphics card is capable of running Sims 4, all packs included, on medium high settings at least, or high if you don't have all the demanding expansions installed.  I would worry a little about buying from a third-party vendor on Amazon, but the seller does seem to have a good reputation.

If you can spend $1,000 though, you could get a gaming laptop with a proper gaming graphics card.  The Nvidia 1650 in this laptop is almost three times as fast as the MX250 in the one you found and can run all Sims 4 content on ultra settings with some room to spare, which would better accommodate the increased demands of future expansions.  The laptop doesn't have a lot of storage, but it's enough for Sims 4, your user data, plus however many small apps like browsers you'd want.

In between in price and performance would be this laptop, with an Nvidia 1050, although it's temporarily out of stock.  The 1050 is more than twice as fast as an MX250, although still significantly slower than the 1650, and would just barely handle all current Sims 4 packs on ultra settings.  This model also has twice the storage of the Acer.  I have no idea when this laptop would be back in stock, but you could contact Amazon and ask if there's a rough estimate.

If you have more questions, please feel free to ask.  And if you'd like help looking for other options, just let me know what features you'd like to see, and how much you're willing to pay.

Thank you so much, I’m definitely going to check out the one from best buy. I did find another option but if it’s no good it’s aright I’ll stick with the one you listed

Thanks again.

@24maddie  That's a better option than the other one you found, but still not in the same class as the laptop from Best Buy.  The integrated graphics chip in the Dell is a bit faster than an MX250, but an Nvidia 1050 is still maybe 50% faster for gaming.  Plus, having a dedicated graphics card, with its own dedicated memory, is always better, particularly if a system only has 8 GB memory.  That way, the card isn't borrowing from the system memory, at least not right away, leaving that entire 8 GB available for the processor to use.
