"Performance issue detected" freezes on PC - EA connection score 99/100

In online matches the "Performance issue detected" warning shows up, the game freezes for a few seconds, then plays back in fast motion until it catches up. It makes matches unplayable. It is not my connection: my EA Connection Quality Report for FC 27 shows a 99/100 score (ping 3.35 ms, jitter 0.15 ms, packet loss 0.01%, Ethernet). Screenshot attached.

My PC:

  • CPU: Intel i7-12700 (12th gen)
  • GPU: AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT 16 GB (Adrenalin 26.8.1, up to date)
  • RAM: 32 GB, dual channel
  • Storage: SSD only
  • Monitor: 1080p 165 Hz with FreeSync (second monitor connected)

What I've tried (none of it fixed the freezes):

  • Turned off every overlay: Steam, Discord (new and legacy) and the AMD in-game overlay.
  • Graphics settings: fullscreen at native 1920x1080, VSync off, dynamic resolution off.
  • Frame cap: 165 FPS through Radeon Chill, then only the in-game limiter (Chill off). Now testing 120 FPS.
  • Turned off Radeon Super Resolution for the game profile.
  • Also failed in borderless/maximized window, not just fullscreen.
  • Ran a continuous ping during a full match: zero packet loss and no spikes at the exact moment of the freeze.

Players on PS5 and Xbox report exactly the same symptom, so this looks like a game or server-side issue, not a PC or network problem. Can EA confirm it's being investigated, and is there an ETA for a fix?

    Adding my DxDiag report (attached as DxDiag.txt). Key points:

    • Windows 11 Pro 64-bit, build 26200
    • AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, driver 32.0.32015.2008 (9/27/2026), WDDM 3.2, hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling enabled
    • DxDiag Notes: no problems found on any tab
    • Windows Error Reporting has a RADAR_PRE_LEAK_64 event for FC27.exe (Windows memory leak detection), which may be related to the freezes.

    I’m experiencing exactly the same issue on my MSI Stealth 15M using the EA app. Everything runs perfectly until I enter an online match. Then the “Performance issue detected” message appears, and the gameplay becomes extremely delayed, sometimes by around two seconds. My game was running perfectly before the recent update. Please investigate this issue, as multiple PC players appear to be experiencing the same problem

    Same. And this started happening after the last update. Not sure how EA keeps making it worse. Can anyone tag EA community manager? The game is unplayable now.

    Yea this is crazy. Exact same thing has been happening to me since launch, but feel like it's become even more common since the last patch. Unplayable at times
