Same here. I uninstalled and only reinstalled a quarter of the packs I actually own but it didn't help. Probably not a storage issue :( hope u get a fix.
I have a gaming laptop as well and I believe it's a CPU issue. When you're playing the game, try putting your task manager on and seeing how much memory, GPU and CPU is being used up.
If you've reinstalled check if you forgot to delete localthumbcache. And go to the Sims folder, click on the "config" document and change the FPS to 60 after searching "framerate."
Hope any of this helps.
