@fluffytiera Did you try running the game with only one monitor? Did you check Task Manager to see if anything is hogging the system? Another thing to check is system temperatures. If something is running hot the system may be throttling (slowing down the processor). Could be something simple as an incorrectly mounted cpu cooler - it is rare but I have seen plastic still on the cooler. I'm assuming this is a fairly new system. It may take some time for Windows OneDrive to sync.
@fluffytiera Try playing in a clean boot:
When you reboot, go through the Task Manager's background processes list shutting down everything that doesn't absolutely need to be running, for example anything from RGB software to MSI Afterburner might still be active. If you accidentally kill the wrong process and it doesn't restart on its own, just reboot your computer again.
The one non-Microsoft service to leave active is the EABackgroundService, which the EA App requires in order to open.
If you're currently using the EA App, it's also worth trying to install Origin to see whether the game runs any better there. Some players can't run Origin anymore, but for those who still can, this sometimes helps.
And again, I'd like to know what kind of framerates you're seeing in-game.
