Experiencing FPS drops and poor performance
I'm having performance issues with The Sims 4; my FPS drops a lot, which I found very strange because I play on an Acer Nitro 5 with an i5 12450H, RTX 3050, and 24GB of RAM, so The Sims 4 should have...

danilo29oliveira Sorry for the late reply; your thread was moved to the PC tech forum for further troubleshooting.
How do you lock the game to 144 or 60 fps? If you're using Vertical Sync in the Nvidia Control Panel, does it help to set it to Adaptive rather than On? If you're using a different method, one that works in windowed mode as well as fullscreen, does the game run better in one of these modes rather than the other?
Please also let me know whether you see the same behavior with post processing off; when the camera is still, or only when it's moving; and on all lots, including on a blank lot in one of the base game worlds, or only on a few. The question is whether this is inherent game behavior or is dependent on context. If you notice any other patterns to the fps drops, please share them as well.
puzzlezaddict What I find strange is that on my old laptop, which had an i5 8250U and an MX150, The Sims 4 ran smoothly at 60 fps, but its screen was also natively 60Hz. This is one of the things that helped me understand that it seems The Sims 4 has some incompatibility with 144Hz screens.
