NFS Unbound CPU / Heat Problem.

When i turn on the game my CPU temp goes to like 80 - 90 and after playing for like 5-10 min its 90 - 105 is there any way to fix this problem?

The game also starts lagging and flickering in various scenes, after 20 - 25 minutes it is no longer playable and I have to either close the game or turn my watercooler to max and side with an open window to have a change to play. 

PC Specs:
RAM : Kingston FURY Beast RGB DDR5-5600 C40 DC - 32GB 2 Blocks
Motherboard : Asus ROG Strix Z790-F
GPU : Asus GeForce RTX 4080 TUF OC - 16GB GDDR6X RAM
CPU : Intel Core i7-13700K Raptor Lake
CPU Cooler : NZXT Kraken Z53 RGB
M.2 : WD Black SN850X PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 - 1TB


It seems like the high temps are do to the game using like 100% of the CPU all the time.

I posted a photo of Hardware Monitor my game crashed that time as well.

  • I get this error message to, happens 2/3 times in a play session on like 1/2 hours.

  • I have had this issue myself and have been searching for a fix but so far I come up with nothing and EA support sucks with no help from them or any concern to fix this issue
