I recently upgraded my PC by adding a new SSD and a 16GB stick of RAM, but it's still running slowly. Most of the time, I just play Sims 4 with a few mods. Should I be looking to upgrade my graphics card too, or is there something else I might be missing?

Is your Windows operating system installed on the new SSD? Also, when you say 'slow,' can you clarify what you mean? Posting your full specs would help us understand better! Check out pcpartpicker.com for that!
What's your CPU? Knowing that will help a lot. For reference, I have an Intel Core i3-12100 in a similar setup. If it's a bottleneck, going for a better CPU might be your answer, especially since Sims 4 relies heavily on CPU performance.
Oh, I have the Intel Core i3-12100! I think that could be part of the problem since I didn't install Sims 4 on the new SSD.
