    I figured out how to keep the EVGA Precision X (and RivaTuner) software happy along with the Origin In Game. I had to open RivaTuner and add the .exe files for the games that had the issue (PvZ-GW and BF4) and also Origin.exe and then set the "Application detection level" for each to "None".

    *Edit: I've also heard that MSI Afterburner incorporates something like RivaTuner in which you have to do the same basic things. I can't confirm that tho, since I'm not an Afterburner user.

RivaTuner (for EVGA Precision X) and TeamSpeak are running in background, but not the overlays for either.

Your post got me to thinking about the RivaTuner that EVGA Precision X uses to display the frame-rate. I turned off the frame-rate option and enabled Origin in game. Seems to work fine. Anyone else have issues with RivaTuner 6.1.2?

This brings up another question - if I have to disable RivaTuner to get the Origin In Game to work, does anyone know how I can display the frame-rate inside the game?

    Ctl + R

    or

    Open Notepad.
    Copy and Paste this:

    PerfOverlay.DrawFps 1

    Save it as "user.cfg"

    You cannot have user.cfg.txt
    enable "View Extentions of Known File Types" from Folder Options in Control Panel

    Put it in your PvZ directory
