Sry for the phone pic but left icon appears when spike hits (10 sec interval) and right icon appears sometimes.

Try these steps and let me know if you still have the same problem ->
- Have you tried running this in CMD :
ipconfig /flushdns

- Try playing on LOW.
- Try to repair the game in the EA app or Steam.
- Add an exclusion to your firewall and antivirus software for the game folder.

Let me know 😉

Did all. IP conf, low settings, repaired and added exclusion.
Now some game rounds run smoothly, but some rounds have the same spikes and the same red icon on the left. Spike hits random times. It seems like the game can't optimise shaders or something. Same issue, random times.

Okay, can you send me a Dxdiag so I can see your hardware.
Press the Windows and R keys at the same time.
Type DxDiag in the window that appears, then click Save all information and save the file wherever you want.
Then drag and drop the file here, then click Share - add the .txt file as an attachment.
