All of a sudden I'm having this same issue but I have an AMD Radeon R9 290A Series

It worked until today and after an 'Origin Update' I am getting this error.

Turning off In-Game feature for Origin worked for me too.

Thanks.

For posterity, same problem and deactivating "in-game" resolved it for me too.

Instructions:

Disable the "Enable Origin in Game" feature before play game under settings on the Origin taskbar icon

Lol. This worked. The issue is the origin client.
