- Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Options>Graphics>Refresh Rate
- What happens when the bug occurs? When using DX11, the game does not follow changes to the refresh rate setting in the options. The game will always run at the displays default rate. Turning Vsync on or off does not fix this. Vsync off, even with the refresh rate set lower, will run the game at max fps of 200.
- What do you expect to see? It's expected that limiting the frame rate to 60 or 120, limits the rate and doesn't ignore the setting.
- Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods Clothing and hair CC

@Myschkaillyanova and @AIT3ANN Do you have any files in ConfigOverride, in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4? If so, please remove them.
@Myschkaillyanova Does it help to revert to DirectX 9 mode? It's a check box in the graphics settings, to the right of post processing.
@AIT3ANN Please update your graphics driver, which is a year old, and try DX11 mode again. You can get the newest driver here:

@puzzlezaddictit crashed too with dx9, but i had mods then, so i removed them entirely, cleared my caches and repaired the game. Haven't tried with dx9 and no mods yet, testing right now. Also, i don't have any files in my ConfigOverride folder.
Edit : after testing with dx9 and no mods on my old save, game seems to be fine. Sort of. I noticed my CPU is heating and struggling way more than usual. And mind you, before the update my game was running fine and no overheating with GShade and 200Go (yes, 200 gigabytes) worth of mods and CCs. It's concerning, to say the least

@puzzlezaddict I don't have anything in the ConfigOverride folder and I updated my drivers and it's still happening in Dx11. I have attached a new dxdiag file if that helps
*Edit: After testing some more I found that it doesn't happen in windowed mode only Fullscreen and Windowed Fullscreen but then after I travelled to the lot I saved then exited to main menu and then it crashed in windowed mode.
