Hello,
I’ve been experiencing severe FPS drops and GPU spikes in EA Sports FC 26 on PC. The game runs smoothly for a few matches, but after certain scenes (like halftime, menus, or cutscenes), FPS suddenly drop to single digits and the GPU gets stuck at 100%, forcing me to restart the game.
I’ve already tried every possible fix — clean driver installation (DDU), older NVIDIA drivers (552.44), high-performance settings in Windows and NVIDIA Control Panel, disabling V-Sync in-game and enabling it in the driver, lowering resolution, and adjusting power and thermal settings. Nothing resolves the issue.
It seems like a problem with the Frostbite engine or a memory/driver loop specific to FC26, since other games run perfectly on the same hardware (RTX 3050 Ti, i5-11400H, 16 GB RAM).
Please forward this to the technical team — many PC users are reporting the same issue. We need an urgent patch or official workaround.
Thank you.

They simply do not care. Scam of a company

3050Ti as well, fps during the competition 12, max 20, very crazy, set to the lowest setting, really wanted to refund but was refused because I played for several hours before without this symptom, until after 15 hours, the problem occurred.

The only solution I could find is that if you lower your resolution settings. The GPU usage comes down to 60 or 70%, and I feel it's just an issue with the game for which they would have to roll out an update.
