Re: madden 24 on PC - utilizing CPU instead of GPU

@tonys526 

Make sure your display is connected to the GPU and not the motherboard video output.

Check your settings via the GPU control panel too, you can explicitly specify that the GPU be used on a game by game basis.

Thanks.

    @EA_Barry hey there thanks for responding. However my connection is already to the GPU and those settings are set as well. I noticed many others also facing similar issues. Will there be a patch at some point to fix this? I’ve purchased the game early and haven’t been able to play it yet because of this and nobody has given me a solution yet.

    @tonys526 Same issue here. I considered upgrading parts but realized this occurs almost every year with madden. Not to mention I play AAA games with no issues

    @EA_Barry BUMP!
    This is unacceptable we all have had the same issue here with the game WAY overworking the CPU. Is the Dev team aware of the issue? Do they know how to code the game to use any GPU? When can we expect a patch for the game to actually be playable? We need and deserve answers!

    EA acting like our PC's specs are the problem... I wouldn't have bought  the game if my PC was below the recommend pc specs you (EA) attached to the game... Stop blaming the customers and blame the people who coded it poorly and clearly didn't even test  the "recommend specs" If you are above the recommended the game should run well end of story. If you meet the minimum settings you should  expect  it to run  bad but I'm well above the recommended specs. The issue is the worst  in online H2H games I have noticed it still happens in solos but not as often.

    Well this may be it.  I have only managed to "play the trial for 4 hours"  Even then I have yet to play a full game without it crashing.  The CPU is hogged everytime I play and GPU sits idle. 

    I guess I wont be playing madden for the first time since like 1995.  This has legit been my Bday gift every year since I can remember now 37.  such a fall from grace
