For your own personal future reference, and for anyone else who comes across this thread and might not already know.
When wanting to know if the specs of a system that you have or are looking to buy are good enough to run a certain game or select certain games, head on over to https/www.game-debate.com/ and search for your game. Then, underneath the requirements section for that game, put in the hardware for said system and when finished, the area where you saw the requirements for the game will change to having either green check marks or red X's that will let you know if your chosen hardware combination can run the game at either minimum or recommended requirements.

Also, as WildCard999 said, that laptop has beefier specs than what is required to run that game at recommended settings. (usually High preset @ 1080p) which is good, because looking at theose specs, you can run most new AAA titles at moderate settings at 1080p with playable framerates.

oh, and yes. laptop will get hot. Laptops will always get hot because they are laptops. Especially gaming laptops, because they've got beefy hardware being crammed into a thin tight space and the only thing to cool it is a very basic and compact cooling system.

But that's ok, because the laptops are designed to operate at the temperatures that they typically get up to.

It won't be burning a hole in your lap, but it will be warm for sure. But only when under a full load (i.e. gaming) any other time it will stay fairly cool.

Gaming laptops always run hot but as long as you have it on a hard flat surface so the hot air can be exhausted from the laptop then you'll have no issues. Laptop hardware has a higher thermal limit over the desktop counterparts.

Yes but with laptops when it's plugged in the power settings will be high performance (under battery), if you gaming on battery power the laptop may lower performance to make the battery last longer but you can go into power savings and put it on high performance when unplugged but this will drain the battery quicker. Either way the laptop will play the Sims 4 smoothly.
