Battlefield 5 lag spikes every 5 minutes and game freezing for 2 seconds

Hey guys,

In every game mode, every single match, I get these huge lag spikes which freeze my game for 2 seconds. I have every graphics option on Low (the problem also occurs when I try higher graphical settings), and I use the game with DX11 (the 2 second long lag spikes still occur on DX12 too). My hardware is okay according to the game's hardware requirement page. The game is on SSD, so the freeze problem couldn't be an OLD HDD. I have an FPS Counter enabled to monitor my fps, and no, it's not dipping below 60.

Do you have any solution? What is the cause of this lag?

    For months I have had these small micro freezes of 1 or 2 seconds, many (including friends) complain about the same problem. I've tried everything, DX11 or DX12, Ultra or Low details, obviously all on very high end systems. I wonder when DICE is going to solve this problem. I noticed that it happens when the CPU/GPU graph shows completely random CPU high spikes (9900K).
