FC 26 lagging during matches

I’ve been running PC games (especially FIFA/FC) for years without any issues, but FC 26 is giving me a headache. I’ve started experiencing a weird type of lag only during actual matches, it feels like the game goes into slow motion. I added the -dx11 to the Launch options on steam and this fixed the game for some time but now the last months the game has been lagging again. As far as I know so many other users also experiencing the same issue and there is no way to fix this. 

Here are my specs:
HP Omen 17 - cb0011nv

  • Intel Core i7 9750H
  • 16 GB RAM
  • GTX 1660 Ti 6 GB
  • 256 GB SSD + 1TB HDD

I’ve already tried:

  • Updated all NVIDIA and Windows drivers
  • Verified game files via Steam
  • Restarted my laptop
  • Lowered graphics settings (even tried lowest)
  • Cleaned fans to reduce temps
  • Game is up to date
  • Set the game to 60 FPS and running the game in windowed mode

    Plz drop here your pc specs; Im making a theory: it only happens on RTX 3050, and its impossible to fix it as its like a sort of "incompatibility issue"

    Yeah fr, i was having issues like a few weeks ago but they stopped. And since yesterday its just got so bad again. I got dropped a whole division because my game would crash every single game within 5 minutes after kick off. Sometimes it doesn't crash but then i'm playing 200 ping the whole game and its constantly freezing. just wish theyd fix this issue so i could play the game
