As usual you have to use workarounds to resolve your issue being EA/Maxis are slow to add to the database had to use GeForce Experience to resolve the issue. I wish I didn't have to but it is the only way.🙂
Download and install the newest drivers from Nvidia.
The Sims 4 does not read your card it simply uses the installed drivers.
Do not manually edit the config.ini file use the settings dialog in the game.
To repair the damage you did right click the Sims 4 in Origin and select repair.
I am using the latest drivers 382.05. However the card is not in Sims 4 database. Thanks anyway
I found out if I disable the intel card it does not allow me to access my Nvidia panel which to me means somehow the intel card and the Nvidia card are interlaced, I hate dual card laptops.
