FC 27 stuttering on PC? What settings should I check first?

Closed thread Closed by archive Sample discussion

Has anyone put together a decent checklist for FC 27 stuttering on PC?

Before someone says upgrade the GPU, I want to figure out what's actually causing it. Some games run smoothly until a match starts, and other times the menus themselves feel slow.

I'm planning to check temperatures, background apps, drivers and the graphics settings first. Anything obvious I'm missing?

First thing I'd do is check whether the FPS is dropping or the connection is unstable. They can feel surprisingly similar during a match.

Also close random background apps. Browser tabs can eat more resources than people expect.

Check temperatures and clock speeds while the issue happens, not ten minutes afterward. That gives you a much better clue.

Good point. And change one setting at a time. Otherwise you won't know what fixed it.

Does lowering resolution help, or is that pointless?

If you're GPU-limited, it can help. If the issue is CPU-related, shader compilation, or network latency, lowering resolution may do little.

Make sure the game is using the intended GPU if you're on a laptop with integrated graphics.

I'll test offline gameplay too and compare it with online matches. That should help narrow it down.

Yep. Record your settings and results so you don't end up changing twenty things and making it worse.
