I just wanted to pop in and say that the guide linked will work fine for your card IF you substitute your device ID for the one provided. So in this line:
card 0x1f91 "GeForce GTX 1650"
Replace the bolded 1f91 with your card's device ID. You can find the ID in a number of places, including the deviceconfig.log, in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3; this is the relevant part in bold, from about 35 lines down:
Name (driver): Radeon Pro 560
Name (database): AMD Radeon Pro 560 Series
Vendor: ATI
Chipset: Vendor: 1002, Device: 67ef, Board: 0179106b, Chipset: 00c0
As for graphics settings, if you have a 1920x1080 monitor, you should be able to play on ultra graphics settings, minus the two (water and high-detail lots) that need to be turned down to lower the demands on the game engine. I usually play with those on "mirrors only" and 2, respectively.
I also don't play in compatibility mode, and I've never had an issue running the game in Windows 10.
