Anti-aliasing (AA)

DSR Supersampling AA can be enabled for GeForce GTX 600 series or later video cards with the 344.48 WHQL or newer drivers. Windows 8.1 users should run the game in Windows 7 compatibility mode to increase stability and performance. If DSR is not displayed correctly (part of the display is cut off of the monitor), exit the game, toggle the desktop resolution to a higher setting in the Nvidia Control Panel, then reboot the game. The desktop resolution can then be reverted to native.

60 FPS

Enable 60 FPS cutscenes[citation needed]
  1. Go to Game Properties in Origin.
  2. Under Command Line Arguments, type in -GameTime.MaxSimFps 60 -GameTime.ForceSimRate 60+.

Notes

The fix will sometimes break a rolling start at the beginning of a race, requiring manual acceleration and making you fall behind in the race. It also speeds up physics.
