@Dragot Are you running Origin in game ? Could you try take a picture with a camera ? Have you tried turning off all unnecessary background programs ?

@crinrict Hey thanks for the response but I figured it out it was the Origin fps overlay that was on but it was just being displayed as a white solid bar I guess its on by default.

@DragothX1X Probably a design. If you want FPS on your screen, you can turn the game ones on by using the cheat FPS on

@DragothX1X  You can change the colour of the fps background for the Origin ones, in its settings.

@Gordan_Ramseyp open the Origin app then click on Origin and then application settings on the drop down then on the top click on Origin In-Game and under During Gameplay you can select from the drop down if you want it displayed or not. Hope this helps.
