What's a good frame rate limiter aside from nvidia profile inspector(for sims 3)?

The most recent of the Nvidia drivers now include their own Max Frame Rate function alongside of vertical sync and triple buffering on the control panel. Some players have other needs for Inspector anyway, but for those who do not it may not be necessary anymore.

A good alternative, and what many of us with AMD Radeon cards use when our own cards' control panels just aren't doing the job, is RivaTuner Stats Server (RTSS). An oddity with this one is that RTSS has be running when one launches the game, so if we change settings and quit (rather than minimize to the system tray) by mistake, it's not running anymore and will have no effect. But we don't change our settings every day and RTSS can be set to startup with Windows. It uses practically no system resources even though it will show up on the Task Manager.

I’m one of those who needs a program.For some reason the global settings never worked for me.Which is why I had inspector.But I don’t know why it keeps disappearing on me.I know this might be weird But I’m constantly changing settings.When I take screenshots I adjust certain settings to high then put it back to medium ?

I really like using Nvidia profile inspector as it keeps my gaming's rates down.
But when my laptop updated its graphics it deleted from my computer for some reason.
And I tried redownloading it, but its missing the frame rate limiter.So if someone knows of another
program that works just as well, that would be great!

@GraceyManor Can't you just turn on Vsynch, that'll cap the game frame rates to your monitors refresh rate, which in most cases is 60. That's what I've done on all my computers where I have installed TS3 over the years, and so far it's worked fine. Luckily I've never had to resort to using any third party software to keep the FPS locked on 60, or under. You'll have to play in full screen mode for it to work though.

I only play in full mode anyways.But it doesn’t work.But my laptop finally died it’s keyboard stopped working tech guy said it would be cheaper to get a new laptop

@GraceyManor Yikes! Did all this have time to happen since you started this thread where you ask for help with your laptop, it's only been a day or so...??
