You guys did fantastic for me last time -

Need a new computer. Needs to run Sims 4 at 1080p, 60fps consistently. Don't need much more than that.

Theme doesn't matter, but a plus if so - Needs everything except keyboard, mouse, and monitor.

I'd like to keep it cheap as possible, sub 600 if possible. Not a penny more than 800.

location- USA

updated op, sry.

sub 600 if possible, but no more than 800$. Location-usa

Only games that will be on it will be Sims 4, Terraria, and a few other games. Then some movies and internet browsing.

others will probably have different opinions.
ram is cas 14 for others building for you ;)

how much storage do you need? 250 enough? do you have any spare hard drives laying around?
if you actually need it/want it under 600, lmk
this build is very solid tho imo

Looks pretty good to me! Thank you very much.

Probably going to change out the SSD to a HDD though. Computer will only be used on weekends, so no need for SSD

load times don't mean much to the person who wants the computer. So long the Sims 4 works, an extra minute or two for bootup isn't terrible

but you can overestimate it

ssd is an unnecessary luxury; it's nice to have but don't make sacrifices in your build to accommodate it

/e Unless it's a build for path of i/oxile of course
