MEMORY LEAK BF6

Hello everyone,

I'm dealing with an annoying FPS drop issue in Battlefield 6 and I’m hoping someone can help me figure it out.

🖥️ My specs:
- GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5060 (8GB VRAM)
- CPU: Intel i5-14400F
- RAM: 32 GB DDR5
- OS: Windows 11 PRO 64-bit
- NVIDIA driver: 581.57 WHQL (latest Game Ready)

⚙️ What happens:
When I start playing, I get amazing performance — around 300–400 FPS on High settings (1080p).  
After playing 2–3 matches, my FPS slowly drops to around 150–200 and stays there until I restart the game.

🔍 What I noticed:
- GPU usage stays high (~95–98%)
- VRAM usage keeps going up during matches (from ~6 GB to 7.2–7.4 GB)
- Temperatures are fine (~65°C)
- Restarting the game instantly brings performance back to normal

✅ What I tried:
- Cleared shader cache with DDU  
- Verified game files in EA App  
- Reinstalled the game  
- Disabled overlays and background apps  

💭 My guess:
It feels like some kind of VRAM memory leak or caching issue — performance keeps dropping the longer I play.

❓Can anyone confirm if they’re having the same problem or if there’s a fix for this?  
I’d really appreciate any help or suggestions to solve it.

Thanks in advance!

  • hello.

    while i was in the game i wen into the advanced graphics settings and at the bottom right where you see how much VRAM you are using to run your graphics settings.  Well this seem to move about whilest you are in the game.  so it could be possible that it could be a VRAM memory leak.

    now i am not to sure, but check it out and see if this is normal or not.
