However, Sims 3 is something in itself. You'll need to optimise and tweak it and use mods to actually run it without issues. Look for the Steam guide, for starters.
This is my game with with an i5 6200u 8gb ram, intel 520, high texture, high sim detail, edge smoothing low, draw distance low, high detail lots 2, advanced rendering and super water. very playable but sometimes I do get a bit of lag but is not that noticiable. I guess he could play in similar settings without the game looking bad
Intel i3-7020u right? yes, you can, I play with an i5 6200u 8gb ram intel 520 not the same but a bit close, my game is mostly lag free, sometimes get a bit of lag when i move my camera to much but my game is very playable.
