Maybe, if you have a Windows 10 PC or laptop play in Game mode? It promises to cut down on things that might run in the background unnoticed by you. I'd be careful about Ultra settings if you are getting problems like that. NVidia can set optimal settings for your game for you and it might not be in Ultra.
I've got an NVidia Geforce RTX 2080 Super and most of the Optimal settings are "Very High" with Sims themselves on "Ultra." It works very well for me.
You might have a more powerful machine though. Mine is about two years' old now, an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz with 16GB RAM
