Laptop for playing Sims 4 - 10yo cousin request!

    As the designated "technology" person in my family, I've been asked to source a laptop for my 10 year old cousin who wants to play the Sims 4 as cheaply as possible. Problem is I haven't had to buy my own laptop / PC for a while so not familiar with anything anymore.

    Recommended specs are:
    • Operating system: 64 Bit Windows 7, 8, 8.1, or 10
    • Processor: Intel core i5 or faster, AMD Athlon X4
    • Memory (RAM): 4 GB RAM
    • Hard drive (free space): At least 9 GB of free space with at least 1 GB additional space for custom content and saved game
    • DVD drive
    • DVD-ROM drive required for installation from disc only
    • Graphics card (video): NVIDIA GTX 650 or better
    • Direct X version: DirectX 9.0c Compatible

    Budget is very very tight, currently around €250 and climbing slowly with odd jobs etc. I've managed to convince her that it's better to keep saving rather than blow the money on something that won't actually work. Any help or direction appreciated.

    Thanks!
