    Hi!

    When I play any game from Origin (i.e. battlefield 1 or FIFA 17) when it comes fullscreen the Framerate drops to 50 locked FPS. If I play windowed mode I have no issues.

    I wanna go 60 FPS fullscreen and I don't manage to find out how to get them. Tried disabling shadow play and Xbox DVR with no success.

    Any suggestion?

    It only happens with origin games and with HDMI!

    Depends on TV. With my old Samsung TV I was able to play only at 50fps (50Hz lock display). PS3, PS4 Pro and X360 we're all the same.

    HDMI supports 60Hz, so don't worry about it. It's not the reason.

    Note that I'm playing every last game with 60hz.

    It's something origin games related...

    Do they Frames ever go over 60 or are they capped? As well what application as you using to measure your FPS?
