Also noted that sims 3 does recognize my graphic card (note form my device config bellow)

Thank you so much for your quick reply!Yes i was referring to Control Panel settings mostly because i doubt that my laptop capabilities are enough for overclocking my card, plus i never touched Nvidia inspector ever in my life so i wouldn't want to fry anything!But to be fair i am am willing to give it a try.I understand there is no such thing as ''best settings''' i should have phrased it better i meant more suited to my specs nothing fancy, but none or less your answer was more that i even hoped for.So once again thank you for your recommended settings and the effort you put on answering me, it was exactly what i needed. Honestly i had no idea what half of the settings did and i really appreciate that you took your time on elaborating my question.
It was quite enlightening to say the least , now the only thing left is ''Trial and error'' i guess.
I hope you have a wonderful day!

Really sorry for necroposting, but I found this thread just now because of iCad's post about applying the same tweaks to the NVidia settings that were listed here also to TS2, and realized that the comment that listed all the tweaks was deleted somehow.

For anyone else who ends up finding themselves in this same situation, I found a snapshot of the webpage on Wayback Machine that still had that comment here. Hope it helps :D
