@Nasdrah Sims 4 has fps drops, that's normal. Framerates will be lower in some worlds than others, for example San Myshuno makes fps drop considerably; bad weather, like rain or snow, requires more resources to render than a sunny day; and more sims on a lot will also make fps drop, sometimes considerably. High poly (high resolution) custom content can lower framerates as well, since it's more demanding to render than EA-made clothing.
Are you seeing any other issues in your game? Is there a pattern to the fps drops, for example in a certain world or on a certain lot? If you use a lot of custom content, try playing without it, just to see whether it makes a difference. You don't have to save your progress.
Hi, I didnt go to another World so I cant see that yet. The drops happens in my house too not only going to places. I have only 1 mod install and 1lot, a house. The thing is I dont undeestand I got a friend with a lower nvidia and he plays 100fps i do at 30-40-50-60 its horrible

@Nasdrah Okay, try playing in a clean user data folder, just to get a baseline. Move your entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content. Don't add anything to this folder yet; just start a new save and see what framerates you get. Have your sim(s) travel to a few different worlds, just to get an idea of what fps looks like in different places.
If fps is still low, try playing while your laptop is not connected to the internet. You can sign into Origin and put it in offline mode, then disable wifi and/or disconnect the ethernet cable. I'm not suggesting you play like this going forward, but it's another useful test.
