Hey could you recommend any pcs for in the uk that would work really well with sims that will support having a lot of mods? Thanks love your videos ❤️
Great video. I’m so glad I came across your page today.
So all the pc you shared they work best for the computer freezing the game and loading slow ?
Has anyone bought the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3? I want to know if that would run Sims 4 well. I need a new laptop for school and I also want it to run Sims well, please help!
ok can you play the sims on the all in one desktop i feel like i bought it for nothing
Does anyone have the best buy links for the first ones?
Can you use any screen with this, any specific reasonable recommendation?
I just bought a Dell Inspiron, thanks to this video and I am so SOOOO excited about. Playing on my air Mac hasn’t been the worst experience but the game is definitely more optimized for PC desktops so I”m so glad I’m going this route finally 🙂 bonus that I’ll finally be able to try out reshade as well! Thank you so much for all your help!
Which one of these would you recommend for cc and mods
would you say these computers would be good for sims 3 as well?
I’m a little late to this video but are you still recommending the NZXT pc because I really need one for sims and I don’t wanna pay just to turn around a year later for a better one! Also I’m so glad I found your channel ! Love the content
I have a desktop that I bought off eBay. It has Windows 10, and I’m unable to play ANY of The Sims games. 😕 Can you please give me advice on what pc I need to play not only Sims 4, but Sims 1 through 3? Any little bit of help would be greatly appreciated.
I’m debating between buying the NXTZ (the first one you presented) or the higher end custom built PC you presented in your last year video… RN my boyfriend’s friend wants to sell me this custom-built for a fair price : ASUS A320M-K
Ryzen5 3600 6-Core 12Threads 3.6GHz (4.2GHz Max)
RAM 8GB DDR4 2666MHz (16GB: +49$)
HDD 1000GB SATA3 7200rpm (ajout SSD 240GB: +49$)
GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER 4GB
600Watts CASE Gamer N21+ LED CoolerMaster 600Watts
Why would you suggest me to do ? I only plan to play the Sims 4 and do a little bit of coding (Python, SQL, SAS… for fun)
I have a 2009 34 BIT computer and can only play sims4 legacy. Would buying a PC and attaching it give me more bits?
What if the hp pavilion has 256 gb ssd instead of 1tb hdd? Is it worth it still?
I can’t afford a new pc so im stuck in lagland with my 7 year old pc and i know nothing about computers or specs but this is so informative, thank you so much!
hi I have about 18k files in my mods folder lol so which one of these options would be best?
My PC is really slow and it’s at HP pc, i was wondering what could i get? i really wanna play the sims but it makes my pc lag and it bad Quality, i willing to buy anything.
Thank you so much for making this video! I was at a loss for what PC would be best just for playing Sims 4 and I’m now saving up for the NZXT Starter 💛 so excited to get my hands on it in a few months
can the HP Pavilion 590-p0057c Desktop run sims 4 with cc and packs also Minecraft?? I’m looking for a computer my mom can get me for Christmas we know nothing about computers lol also it doesn’t have good ratings on Amazon that makes me kinda nervous
I just wanna say that I literally know NOTHING about PCs let alone the parts inside but I went ahead and bought the $1500 one that you recommended because I trust your judgment. 😭
I have 29 packs on top of Sims, I want it for other games and other purposes too … ANY recommendations?
just have to say, i’ve been watching all these videos trying to find a good laptop/PC for sims 4 and i’m so glad your channel exists.
I live in London and I decided on the NZXT Starter PC but they don’t ship it here 😭 what should I do??
I just ordered the NZXT start build pro and it’ll be here Wednesday! I’m so excited! I didn’t want to wait all the time for someone to build the computer tbh. I had got a quote, and everything was basically the same but was $100 more and wouldn’t be here for a month. My main plan is to play sims 4 with a lot of mods and maybe start a youtube channel! I’ll probably need to upgrade to the i7 at some point but probs not for a while which I’m thankful for. Your videos really helped me a lot as I don’t know much about computer parts, so thank you!!
hello! i love your video! i have a question, would HP Desktop Computer 800G1 Intel Core I5,16GB RAM,512GB SSD be able to run the sims 4 with packs and lots of cc? thanks!
Hey, this was so helpful! is i7 with 16gb of ram good for streaming sims 4 on twitch?
thank you so much for these videos! i don’t know anything about computers and technology so this helps so much. 😭💖 would the nzxt starter plus be able to handle games like skyrim and gta v?
I have really bad anxiety for instructions so i have to get prebuilt so this is really helpful
i was wondering if the cyberpower pc ryzen 5 will be good for the sims
I’d like to try to assemble a laptop with good performances for The Sims 4 (installing expansions, using customized material), but I have no idea which components to buy. Do you have recommendations?
This is pretty late 😂 but I was wondering if I could (hopefully) get your input on what kind of computer I should get it. I’ve been researching a lot but I’m still not sure yet so I thought I’d ask. I want one that will run smoothly on the highest settings or the second highest with a bunch of cc and mods. I don’t want to get one and it not work how I want or not comply with my preferences if that makes sense. I would really appreciate your time and input 🙂
i’m gonna consider getting the NZXT starter pc! thank you and I will update when i get it!
(my mom said i will get it if i pass a test, so i will update then)
Do you have a video that guides on building a gaming PC?
So happy to have found your channel & this video! The most intensive game I would ever play on PC would be the Sims so this was such a great find to see this video. Definitely got on the email list for the NZXT computer most like your own because if I am going to get one I might as well get one that will last me such a long time. Thank you so much!!
😭😭😭 You are really helping me find my next PC. I haven’t had a new PC in 10 years I want to start playing City Skylines too so you have really helped a lot.
Hi 🙂 please help, I have old PC Dell Optiplex 3040 with Intel Core i3 6100, I have stock cooler. Is safe play The Sims when I have around 65-70 celsius on CPU?
Thank you for answer 🙂
Have a good day 🙂
Hey ! I’m about to by a prebuilt at a store near my place and I was wondering what was the requirements to play on high graphics or even ultra high graphics pls because none of my choices appear here
I’m looking for a new computer and yours is the first and hopefully the last video I’ll watch
I’m not sure if you’ll see this but I tried posting on the /buildapc/ Reddit and they deleted the post because they don’t "hold the hands of beginners" (made me feel super excluded and stupid 😅) and /thesims/ Reddit asked not to post pc questions on there and they suggested you so I am hoping you or someone in the comments can help, if not that’s okay!
Here’s my post:
So I am trying to save up and buy a whole gaming set-up piece by piece. Right now I have enough to afford a decent monitor but I am still saving up for a nice pc. As TS4 is the main PC game that I play and I haven’t been able to play it since my mac started closing it out once I got past the game’s home screen so I am super excited to play it again. All that being said my question is: Would it be possible to play TS4 with most DLC on just a monitor (I am really considering purchasing the Sceptre 144Hz Gaming LED Monitor Edge-Less AMD Freesync 2019 as it’s on sale rn) until I can purchase the rest of my set up?
For the very last desktop did it cost you less or more than the price shown on the prebuilt ? Just wondering if i should consider buying or just build my own. I love your videos ❤
WILL SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!
I have a budget of around £400 and really want a pc for sims 4. I want to be able to have CC, mods and packs. I was in eBay bid for a Mac but I’m beginning to regret it because I’ve heard it really doesn’t function well. I’m getting really stressed about it.
Does Origin come with Sims 4? In other words, could I play this game offline, or do I HAVE to be online to play it?
Is a go laptop good ?
thoughts on aurora vrla tech?? and what kind of upgrades that are available to get with??😭
I nee stiha ty
does anyone know if the ibuypower slate 1950w computer is good enough to play sims 4 with all dlc? i’m clueless when it comes to this stuff🥴
Thank you so much for this video! I’ve been debating what laptop/desktop to get for around 2-3 years now. I’ve had a 2014 Mac Mini for 6-7 years and although better graphics were playable in the Sims 4 in the early years of the sims, that has slowly declined to the point of all low graphics and a minimised window in order to play, and I still get extreme drops in frames + a hot computer and loud fan. I’ve been looking at desktops and although I am a graphics design student looking for a computer that can run Adobe software at its best, I’ve also been looking for a desktop aimed towards more gaming aspects as Mac really doesn’t hit it for me for gaming! These suggestions are great, so I may look into a pre-built, but perhaps I could get my dad’s mind on computers to build one ourselves! Your videos are superb.
I’m slow with technology to bear with me lol I’m going with the NZXT does it matter what monitor you buy? Do you recommend one to get? or it doesn’t matter what monitor you get?
What pc would I need to play the sims3? And why is it that Windows 10 won’t allow me to play games or DVDs?
