    Hi guys, thanks for the reports. 

    From looking into this it appears to be related to VRAM usage. No specific cards is affected, but higher-powered cards tend to have more VRAM so it's less likely to occur. 

    You can check your VRAM usage in your task manager within the performance tab, 
    To open the task manager you can tab out and press Ctrl, Alt & Esc,



    While you can avoid this graphical issue by disabling DLSS, please note that if you're encountering this you may also encounter other graphics-based issues, such as slow downs.

    Tips to reduce VRAM usage are:

    • Disable any other applications that are running at the same time, particularly if they are VRAM hungry. 
    • Turning down graphics options (especially resolution) can also help with VRAM usage.

  • I also have this issue, although I just started to play NFS Unbound, when switching to 2K resolution then the issue appears, if using 1080, no such problem, pls help to solve it faster, really disappointed, I thought EA is a Big Company, but this issue not yet solve.

  • Yes, i've the same issue, clearly a DLSS issue, disable dlss or using any other super sampling solution works.

  • I cant get 60fps on rtx3060 with everything set to low on 1440p monitor. With dlss it was possible but now it is BROKEN. The whole game is glitched. Is there a way to revert to old patch so I can play the game I payed?

  • So after messing around with it. I finally found a way to turn the up sampler off without the game crashing every time. I had to set every graphical setting to low, exit the game, run nfs again, and only then I could turn the upsampler off.  Since then I haven’t had the “back to the future” glitch.  

    Definitely a DLSS issue, but from what I’ve seen on the forums it has not been fixed yet.
