EA FC 26 crashing after 1-2 matches - Memory leak?
Hi everyone,
I’m having a persistent issue with EA FC 26 on PC and I’m hoping someone can help.
My specs:
Laptop: ASUS V16 V3607VM
CPU: Intel Core 7 240H
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop (8GB VRAM)
RAM: 16GB DDR5 5600MHz
Storage: 512GB SSD
OS: Windows 11 Home 25H2
Monitor: BenQ GL2580 (60Hz, 1080p)
The problem: After playing 1-2 matches, the game gradually starts freezing until it completely closes by itself. It seems like a memory leak that accumulates over time.
What I’ve already tried:
Playing at minimum graphics settings and 720p resolution (rendering quality low, vsync off etc)
Optimizing NVIDIA Control Panel and NVIDIA App (60 FPS cap, Low Latency Ultra etc)
Increasing virtual memory/page file size
Clean NVIDIA driver reinstall
Verifying game files through Steam
Closing all background applications before playing
Windows 11 repair reinstall
My laptop exceeds the recommended specs for the game, so I don’t understand why this keeps happening. Has anyone experienced this or found a fix?
Thanks
