Can I Run The Sims™ 4?

Choose the two parts in your machine and this page tells you whether The Sims™ 4 will run, roughly what frame rate to expect from it, and what The Sims™ 4 actually asked for when they published the requirements. No download, no detection tool.

Your answer

Yes, comfortably

Comfortably. The GeForce RTX 4060 is well past what The Sims™ 4 recommends, so expect roughly 126 fps at 1080p (1920 x 1080) with room to raise settings further.

In The Sims™ 4 the Ryzen 5 5600 runs out before the GeForce RTX 4060 does, so the processor rather than the card is what sets this figure and a quicker card would not move it.

The The Sims™ 4 requirements above were retrieved from its own Steam listing, app 1222670, and reproduced unchanged, and because a patch to The Sims™ 4 can change them that listing is the authority if a figure here looks stale. The verdict and the frame rate shown for The Sims™ 4 are ours, modelled from our hardware index rather than measured on a test bench. Steam listing. How we calculate this.
