GAME WORKING ON LOW FPS

Question

Hello everyone, I am facing a CRITICAL performance issue in EA FC 26 that seems to be a code bug, not a user setting error.

The problem occurs specifically when I enter the ULTIMATE TEAM menus. My FPS crashes immediately from like 120 FPS down to 10-15 FPS.

Crucial Technical Data: When the FPS drops, my monitoring shows two failure patterns:
1. GPU Utilization spikes and gets stuck at 95-100%**, while CPU Utilization is only 50% This indicates a persistent rendering failure or memory leak in the game's code.

My System Specifications
PC Model: Lenovo IdeaCentre Gaming 5-14IOB6
CPU:** [ i5-11700F]
GPU:[ 1650 super]
BIOS Version: MSKTA0A (Latest available from Lenovo)

I have tried EVERYTHING possible, including complex technical steps suggested by experts, all of which only provided a temporary fix before the bug recurred:

Firmware Fixes: Updated to the latest BIOS version (MSKTA0A) to ensure 11th Gen CPU stability.
GPU Cleanup: Performed a manual comprehensive cleaning and reset of both the NVIDIA Shader Cache(via Control Panel) and the DirectX Shader Cache (via Windows Storage settings).
Engine Workarounds: Applied advanced community workarounds by *Disabling Fullscreen Optimizations and setting the DPI Scaling Override to "Application" on the FC26.exe executable file.
Configuration Reset: Deleted all local game configuration files (e.g., FCSetup.ini) and verified the integrity of game files via the EA App to force a clean default setup.

The fact that all these advanced fixes only provided a temporary solution strongly indicates a persistent code bug or memory leak within the game's core UI rendering logic. I desperately need a permanent fix to fully enjoy the game I purchased. Thank you for your time and necessary support.

Do you experience input lag like other players or just frame drops?

Set borderless, 60hz, 60 fps limit, no vsync, half rate, auto graphic settings, disable Freesync or gsync, disable game mode.This has to fix it.

Fullscreen used to work the best for me, due to bug with controllers not working in online game modes. Too many files conflicting, could it be the windows 11 2H25 update - OS Build 26200.6901 -&nbsp; making a hassle out of everything? The game feels terrible now, I was happy with it until the last two days.&nbsp; It could be the latest game update also. Suddenly the opponent is much quicker than me. Against AI, I need to use one difficulty level below the normal one. Today I thought I was playing an early version of FC25 with my players on ice. Maybe the players have changed from boots to sneakers, sliding on the pitch.&nbsp;What a headache!&nbsp;If we didn't have to restart the game to change the rendering quality settings, it would help alot.&nbsp;Please reduce all the menus. Why can't the settings-menu be in a meny that is the same no matter what game mode you are in?&nbsp;DirectX version: &nbsp; &nbsp;12.0&nbsp;GPU processor: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 6GB Laptop GPUDriver version: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;581.57Driver Type: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;DCHDirect3D feature level: &nbsp; &nbsp;12_1CUDA Cores: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;2560&nbsp;Max-Q Technologies &nbsp; &nbsp;YesDynamic Boost &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;YesWhisperMode &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;YesAdvanced Optimus &nbsp; &nbsp;NoMaximum Graphics Power &nbsp; &nbsp;65 WCore clock: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1432 MHz&nbsp;Memory data rate: &nbsp; &nbsp;10.82 GbpsMemory interface: &nbsp; &nbsp;96-bit&nbsp;Memory bandwidth: &nbsp; &nbsp;129.86 GB/sTotal available graphics memory: &nbsp; &nbsp;13982 MBDedicated video memory: &nbsp; &nbsp;6144 MB GDDR6System video memory: &nbsp; &nbsp;0 MBShared system memory: &nbsp; &nbsp;7838 MBVideo BIOS version: &nbsp; &nbsp;94.07.90.00.15IRQ: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Not usedBus: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;PCI Express x8 Gen4Device Id: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;10DE 25AC 17581025Part Number: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;4736 0010[Components]nvui.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;8.17.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA User Experience Driver Componentnvxdplcy.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;8.17.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA User Experience Driver Componentnvxdbat.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;8.17.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA User Experience Driver Componentnvxdapix.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;8.17.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA User Experience Driver ComponentNVCPL.DLL &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;8.17.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA User Experience Driver ComponentnvCplUIR.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;8.1.940.0 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Control PanelnvCplUI.exe &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;8.1.940.0 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Control PanelnvWSSR.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Workstation ServernvWSS.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Workstation ServernvViTvSR.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Video ServernvViTvS.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Video ServernvLicensingS.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;6.14.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Licensing ServernvDevToolSR.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Licensing ServernvDevToolS.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA 3D Settings ServernvDispSR.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Display ServernvDispS.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA Display ServerPhysX &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;09.23.1019 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA PhysXNVCUDA64.DLL &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA CUDA 13.0.97 drivernvGameSR.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA 3D Settings ServernvGameS.dll &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;32.0.15.8157 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NVIDIA 3D Settings Server
