Re: Low FPS in EA Desktop App

@DeathEggTV No worries, thank you for letting us know that you are experiencing the same low FPS in EA Desktop!

Do you have a bit more information about when this happens? Does it happen all the time or only in certain scenarios?

  • @EA_Jason It’s happening ~most~ of the time. It will very randomly run smooth for a few seconds but I can’t find a trigger. Hardware usage is totally fine in performance monitoring software, so I don’t suspect anything nefarious on that end.
    One thing I can reliable replicate: if you click and drag the whole window around your desktop (I generally do this in quick circles) and do so continuously, the frame rate will return to native and run buttery smooth until you stop and scroll or click somewhere in the app again.
    Another clarification.. the low frame rate ~seems~ to be rapid hitching rather than just a consistent low frame rate. Like a frame pacing issues. I say this because you can see the cursor moving at an uneven pattern as you move it around the display quickly. Attempt to demonstrate: •••• • • • • • • ••••. Something like that, visually. (Also, I run my main display at 144hz, which definitely helps notice the difference)
    Hope some of this helps!
  • I just spent an hour trying to fix my screens after installing this *.

    If I am at desktop and click open the app in the centre of the screen and browse around my screen flickers very slightly but very annoyingly, more like a slight brightness change. Whenever the mouse is moved over a selectable item.

    If it focus on the desktop by clicking on it and move my mouse over the EA Desktop content it stops the flickering.

    So its an issue with the app whilst its in focus. Not my cables or screens failing. Phew.
