Re: Low FPS in EA Desktop App

Add in a couple more Nvidia specific changes to make it much smoother:

Same steps as original commenter:

  1. Open Nvidia Control Panel
  2. Manage 3D Settings
  3. Program Settings
  4. Add
  5. Find and Select "eadesktop.exe"

Options to change for EA Desktop specifically:

  1. Monitor Technology
    1. Fixed Refresh
  2. Max Frame Rate
    1. Just below your monitors max (143 for a 144hz monitor)
  3. Preferred Refresh Rate
    1. Application-controlled
  4. Vertical Sync
    1. Off or Fast

Apply all changes in Nvidia Control Panel and restart the EA Desktop App.

For me personally: these changes force the EA Desktop App to run at my monitors max refresh rate (1440p 144hz)
