FC 27 PC – Sudden Stuttering, FPS Drops and Slow-Motion Issues

 

I’ve been experiencing serious performance issues with FC 27 for around two weeks. The game used to run perfectly fine, but suddenly I started getting random FPS drops, stuttering, and slow-motion followed by speed-up during online matches.

The issue became more noticeable after I deleted my FC 27 settings.

Problems:

  • Online Ultimate Team: Random stuttering and slow-motion/speed-up.
  • Offline Kick-Off: FPS drops without the slow-motion effect.
  • FPS occasionally drops from 130 to 30 or lower.
  • Lowering resolution from 1440p to 1080p improved performance but didn’t completely fix it.
  • Other games have occasional FPS drops, but FC 27 is much worse.

PC Specs:
Ryzen 7 3700X, RTX 3070, 32GB RAM, Windows 10, 2K 240Hz monitor, Ethernet.

Troubleshooting I’ve tried:

  • Reinstalled NVIDIA drivers and updated Windows.
  • Switched between Fullscreen and Borderless.
  • Tested 120Hz and 240Hz refresh rates.
  • Lowered resolution to 1080p.
  • Checked CPU/GPU temperatures and usage (normal).
  • Checked RAM usage and XMP settings.
  • Ran Windows Memory Diagnostic.
  • Tested internet stability, ping, and packet loss.
  • Checked EA Connection Quality Report (97/100, 24ms average ping).
  • Monitored FPS using Steam’s overlay.
  • Checked background applications.

I’ve also tried contacting EA Support, but their bot keeps redirecting me to articles without letting me speak to an actual agent.

I’ve spent almost two weeks troubleshooting this issue without finding a permanent solution.

Has anyone experienced the same problem or found a fix? Could this be related to EA AntiCheat or a recent update?

  • I have the same problem, all of a sudden FPS droped to 30 and 40 FPS

  • Same in here. I have 4080s and playing with 360hz oled gaming monitor. I tried everything but sudden fps drops destroying gameplay experience. It's like 1 second slow montion. I cap my fps with 260fps. it's dropping suddenly to 230 but the feeling is not like 230. It's hard to play competitive with this problem.
