Running on the Frostbite Engine, Battlefield 6 is a 2025 live service FPS game that serves as the 18th installment in the Battlefield series.

The game is pretty popular among players and got a solid review from critics. However, no game is perfect, and this one also has some issues and errors, especially when Battlefield 6 runs on DX12.

Players are reporting that even at high-end systems, they experience micro-stutters. If you are also experiencing microstutters while trying to play Battlefield 6 on your PC, then this guide is all you need to fix it.

Battlefield 6 Microstutters on PC Fixed

What the reports claim is that Battlefield 6 runs pretty smoothly at high FPS. But suddenly, it heavily drops for some seconds, which you call microstutters. They can be pretty annoying, especially in a competitive game. Luckily, a Steam user has found some fixes that will solve the issue.

Disable HD Texture Pack (Confirmed Fix) Battlefield 6

Fix #1: Disable HD Texture Pack (Confirmed Fix)

HD texture pack enhances the visual quality of games by providing higher-resolution textures that replace the standard texture files. However, they are the reason why you are experiencing microstutters in-game. To fix this, you will have to disable the HD Texture pack. Here’s what to do:

Through the EA App:

  • Open the EA app on your PC and make your way to the Game Library.
  • Click on Battlefield 6 and select Manage Add-ons or Manage DLC.
  • Look for the HD Texture Pack in the list and deselect it.
  • After that, press Update Install and apply the changes.

Through Steam:

  • In the Steam Library, right-click on Battlefield 6 and select Properties.
  • Open the game’s Manage Add-ons section.
  • Deselect the HD Texture Pack and press Update Install to apply the changes.
  • Launch Battlefield 6, and the microstutters will be gone.

Fix #2: Change Settings Based on Load

There might be some bottlenecks in your systems that are causing Battlefield 6 to stutter on your PC. To fix this, you have to make some changes in the settings based on the load. Open your task manager and see which component’s usage is the most. If your CPU is really high while the GPU usage is lower, then disable or lower any graphics settings that are CPU-intensive. Keep the GPU ones high; lowering or disabling them won’t help in this case.

However, if your GPU is the one struggling and the CPU is chill, then lower the GPU-intensive settings like SSGI high/low. After making the appropriate changes, the game will run without any problems.

Fix #3: Enable REBAR/SAM

Now, it’s time for you to mess with some settings in your BIOS. It’s a pretty risky place if you don’t know what you are doing. But don’t worry, I gotchu. All you gotta do is enable REBAR/SAM. Here’s how to do that:

  • In your BIOS, navigate to the Advanced or Settings menu in the BIOS.
  • Look for the PCI Subsystem Settings or similar options.
  • Enable Above 4G Decoding and Re-Size Bar Support (could be combined into a single setting).
  • Make sure that the Compatibility Support Module (CSM) is disabled, as it can block SAM.
  • Save the changes and exit the BIOS.
  • Launch Battlefield 6, and the microstuttering will be gone.

That should conclude this Battlefield 6 guide on how to fix microstuttering. These games running on the Frostbite engine have sure got a lot of players frustrated because of the numerous errors and issues. Let’s see if the developers decide something about this.
