@oaana San Myshuno is known to produce fps drops on even the strongest systems, so it's not really a good test. Still, an fps of 10 would be excessive. I don't think you've posted a dxdiag yet though? It would help to have that information.

@JeanVW Are you willing to do some hardware monitoring? If so, download hwinfo from here:
https://www.hwinfo.com/download/
You don't need to install anything if you don't want to; just choose the Portable version, unzip it, and launch it from Downloads or wherever you want. (If you would like to install, be sure to click the green button, not the orange one.) Clean boot your computer, and don't open any other apps. Disable your antivirus as well as any utilities (Afterburner, RGB software, etc.) that are somehow still running; you can look for them in the Task Manager.
Launch hwinfo, choose "sensors only," and click the icon that's a sheet of paper with a + sign to start logging. Please also note the time you start the log. Save the file to your desktop for easy access later. Wait five minutes, then launch Sims 3 and play long enough to get a significant fps drop, or two if you can manage. Even if you're able to restore fps through clicking the Options menu, please don't do that until you've let the game run with low fps for at least two minutes.
Please note each time (real world clock) the fps drops, so you can tell me how long it happened after logging. I might be able to see the effects in the info log, but I'd rather know for sure when it happens.
Click the same button to end logging. Then upload the log to a third-party free filehosting site and link it here. Please leave it in .csv format, or if you use OneDrive to share, please compress it in .zip format instead.
@puzzlezaddict Hi! Yeah i know San Myshuno is known for bad fps but i also tried on every map and so far it's always the same thing. I load a household for the first time : choppy fps → I go back in the map (fps stays choppy even in the map) and i load this household again and everything is back to normal. It's only doing it with new household so far.
Here is my DxDiag 🙂 thank you alot for you help !
