Game optimisation CPU bottleneck, totally unoptimised, EA help

I cannot get over 200fps without using frame gen I9-14900KF, 64gb DDR5 skills 7200 running at 6800mhz as 4 stick, 1500 watt psu and palit RTX5090,  custom bios , top 1% in 3d mark and Cinebench R23,  even Battlefield 2042 used to run 300fps without issues on Ultra no up scaling my cpu temps are 60 degrees and gpu the same im CPU bottlenecked at 1440p , the simple display shows my gpu at 400fpd and cpu 200fps and that's what im getting on game whats going on here, the random crashes either just game or full computer shut down i had perfect performance during beta , the game is unplayable, shots missing and fps drops, random round black circle like a telescope in game , no other game has been like this , top teir rig and streaming laptop 12.5k , getting cpu bottleneck and all these issues after spending £100 on a game whilst console players are fine having a great time, now I don't even want to game as i only play this and BF2042 which has been unstable since bf6 was released. Any answer ea ? EA_Elvira​

    I don't own the game, but at first glance seems some kind of bug may have been introduced after beta? No doubt you considered that.

    More generally, you have a great rig and the 200/300fps are great and to be expected with your kit.

    Of course it should be at least as good now. 

    The only thing I find odd (not saying this is your fault) is that you are getting a CPU bottleneck. That's really weird. Your CPU shouldn't bottleneck anything even with an RTX 5090. 

    Could be a game bug - if others report the same, that's your answer and a patch should be forth coming.

    Regardless of that, if me, I would go over my PC settings. Run a DXDIAG check. Run Performance Monitor 1 minute diagnostic test, and then the one minute performance test. They are defaulted to one minute and may help. Additionally your GPU software. Any change in driver?

    It's really hard to pin these things down sometimes except for the person (you) who is using the PC.

    A bit of troubleshooting, of your choice, plus finding out if this problem has been reported else where should help.

    Beyond that, good luck. I can imagine your frustration experiencing this with state of the art (expensive) kit.

    One thing for sure though. It will be patched. You will find out why (some obscure setting, whatever) or, seriously, when you put your PC on next day or sometime the problem will be gone. That's happened to me in the past, but usually not that simple.

    Good luck, and please post back if you find the cause. (It may just, "clear up," by itself if you are very lucky.?) !

    P.S. You mentioned it's only that game. That's a good start. Coming out of Beta in game, or even NV software settings may need changing. You could also after checking in game settings, limit frame rate to 120fps, and set refresh to "application controlled." if using NVCP.

    Most games can be left at highest possible for refresh. But a few don't like that one bit. WRC 8, & 9 either need to control the refresh rate. For some reason the refresh needs to be the same as fps max setting or an exact fraction of it. Not likely with your game though.

    Anyway, maybe something there will inspire a thought? Again good luck.

    The 3rd party benchmarks i ve seen, all put 14900k on about 200 fps. only cpu so far going over 200 that is the 9800x3d with 240-250 fps. And thats for 1080p with max details. So i would say the CPU itself is the limiting factor. 

    On the why did the Beta run flawless? The servers where running at a 30hz tick, in the final product we are playing on 60hz tick servers. so its almost double the load on the CPU now then it was before. 

    The crashing and shutting down is odd. But i would suspect that the custom bios and or the 7200mhz ram on 6800mhz might have a problem. i support a few battlefield clans and most problems with crashing were gone after replacing the ram kit or doing more testing with manual overclocking.
