Sims 4 is locked at 60 fps
Recently upgraded gpu to a 4070 ti super, game is running at 1440p, v-sync is off in game and in nvidia control panel, I use mods but they have never caused any problems. Thanks for help.

I have g-sync compatible monitor, but it's turned off. I also did a clean boot and I still have 60 fps cap.
@Vokulak Please test without mods and without any third-party content at all. I haven't specifically heard of a mod or Sims 4-specific utility imposing an fps cap, but it's an easy test.
Please also let me know where you're seeing the 60 fps limit, and what the game thinks its framerates are. For the latter, bring up the cheats console (ctrl-shift-C) and enter fps on , and you'll see the fps counter in the lower-left corner, over the user interface.
For reference, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post as well.

The first thing I did was to play without mods, but it didn't help. I used the "fps on" command to check fps.
@Vokulak There's nothing obvious in your dxdiag, and since your CPU doesn't have a graphics chip, we can't test that, unfortunately. One possibility that came to mind, though, is the fps limit in Options.ini, in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4. Last I checked, the frameratelimit was 200, but please find that line in Options.ini and make sure it's not somehow set to 60.
Please also test the game in DirectX 11 mode, just as an experiment.
hi, I am having the same issue after upgrading from a RTX 3060 to a RTX 4060 Ti. No matter what I do, my FPS is locked at 60. I've tried all recommendations from this thread as well as extensive Google searches, I can't figure out why this is happening and it low key defeats the purpose of me upgrading the GPU, lol. My dxdiag is attached below.
