Does this laptop work for sims?

Solution
Based on the following link to info and benchmarks for the Intel HD 620 graphics core (which is the integrated GPU in the i5-7200u), there are two laptops that have a core i7-7500u and the Intel HD 620. One medium settings @ 1366x768 resolution, one laptop was able to get up to 56.4 FPS while the other got 63 FPS.

The i7-7500u is a little more powerful than the i5-7200u, but I would guess that 50 FPS should be possible using medium graphic settings. As for the Sims 3, you should definitely not have any issues. But I believe the game is locked at 30 FPS, so even if the GPU can push 90 FPS, only 30 FPS will be displayed.

It will run smoothly but with settings set to medium, and if your computer is good enough it will run with some settings set to high! Like reflections, Sims texture quality, 3D scene resolution, etc. BUT turn off edge smoothing.

My 1.33GHz processor can run the game a bit smoothly but with all settings low.
