Optimizing EA FC 25 for PC is essential to ensuring a smooth gameplay experience, which can be quite crucial for those adrenaline fuelled competitive online matches.
Maintaining a steady 60+ frames per second is essential, as is enabling a moderate level of visual fidelity so as to be able to see characters and other in-game items properly.
As such, the best EA FC 25 PC settings will take into account both performance and image quality, with a slight compromise on the latter which should be suitable for most.

While the options within the ‘Visual’ tab do not affect frame rate and/or performance, they are recommended for optimal gameplay sessions in general.
FC 25 isn’t exactly a demanding game, but it is generally not recommended to push every setting to the Ultra preset as it usually tanks your FPS with a minimal gain in image quality.
