Edit In-game has always been difficult, on any computer and since before the EA App was around.  It's worse now, at least some of the time, but these problems aren't new.  I don't think a better computer would address the fundamental EIG issues, but it should let you play on ultra settings at least, so you can fine-tune some details more easily.

As for OneDrive, the quickest way to get rid of it is to make a new, local admin Windows account and use that.  So you create a dummy account where you sign in, and get OneDrive and all its problems, and then you make your real account and delete the dummy account.  A "local" account means not tied to an email address and therefore not tied to a Microsoft account.  You can create one if you keep declining to enter an email—click "I don't have this person's information" and similar until you stop getting prompts.
