Lagging, Freezing, and Walking Through Walls

The game has been pretty much unplayable since the most recent base game update. It has been freezing every 30 seconds for up to a minute. My sims are walking through objects and walls like they're not there. And just general lag. 

  • I have NO mods installed. I removed them all to the desktop before updating. 
  • I have all EPs (including Lovestruck, but updated before getting it) and GPs and all but one SP. Lots of kits. 
  • SPECS: Windows 11 Pro 64, AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU, 32 GB Dual channel RAM, ASRock B650 Steel Legend Motherboard, 4087MB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 512MB ATI AMD Radeon Graphics, 1907GB Team Storage
  • I have installed every update up to 7/28/24
  • I use the EA app

    I have tried:
  • Repairing the game
  • Removing all saves to the desktop and reloading the game fresh
  • Uninstalling and reinstalling the game
  • Repairing again
  • Installing the MCCC app to see if I could get more info, but it doesn't even recognize that a mod is installed (and yes I enabled script mods in the settings)
  • Checking that my drivers are all up to date

I have no idea what else to do. Any suggestions? Willing to lose all my saves at this point I just want to be able to play the game.
