Time Nudge (TN) issue Megathread
Hello! I've been dealing with issues relating to Time Nudge spikes (can manifest either as high lag or "slow-motion") and high consistent Time Nudge since about Battlefield 2042 update #3.0.0, ...

MrNefOrigin thank you for posting the screenshots, they are very helpful.
HWiNFO shows the memory running at 1067MHz 15-15-15-36-50 instead of an overclocked EXPO/XMP speed of 1800MHz 19-20-20-40-60.
Enabling EXPO/XMP in motherboard BIOS settings should fix this. The memory should be running at 3600MHz in BIOS settings.
This should boost CPU performance and get rid of the low framerate icon in the top left corner of the screen.
The reason the icon is showing up is due to the CPU framerate dropping below 60fps. We can see what the CPU framerate is by looking at simulation (SIM) in the top right corner of the screen.
SIM's framerate is 51fps which is causing the low framerate icon. Having a SIM framerate below 60fps also causes time nudge (TN) to spike which causes network lag as well.
Hopefully enabling EXPO/XMP memory overclocking will boost CPU/SIM performance above 60fps and fix everything.
Are you running a custom user.cfg? If so try disabling it and see if that helps improve SIM framerate.
Hey OskooI_007 , thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.
You were absolutely correct: my RAM was running at default JEDEC speeds (2133 MHz) instead of the XMP/EXPO profile.
After enabling A-XMP in the BIOS, my memory is now running at 3600 MHz, and the difference is massive.
My SIM framerate immediately jumped to a stable 60 FPS, the low framerate icon disappeared, and the Time Nudge spikes are gone. The game finally feels consistent.
I also removed my user.cfg, since those thread settings were probably limiting the engine instead of helping.
So yeah, enabling EXPO/XMP fully solved it. Really appreciate your help! You are truly a legend :)
