    @aliltater  Does the stuttering happen in a new save while your computer is offline?  I just want to make sure before moving on.

    If that doesn't or didn't help, please describe to me how you replaced the SSD, I mean not the physical part but the transferring or reinstalling data.  I'm curious whether the issue is on that end, for example did you install the chipset drivers provided by your motherboard manufacturer, or let Windows find drivers for you?

I’ll have to check in a new save tomorrow but it occurs more when im at public lots rather than home lots. All I did was install windows 11 on the ssd from a usb like I did with my last one and then downloaded my graphics card drivers from the nvidia website

    @aliltater  Please do let me know about the new save.  It would be a shame to dive into system-level troubleshooting if the problem were contained to some lots in one save, which would almost certainly be a save issue, not anything to do with your computer.

      So…it does seem to be just that save which is unfortunate because I had so many nice lots and townies ☹️ Thank you so much for your help!

        @aliltater  You could save your sims and lots to your in-game library, then place them in a new save.  They'd lose their relationships with anyone outside the household, and probably a little more data, but mods can restore most of that.
