PC Performance drops dramatically

I think the title is self explanatory. Whenever I play the Battlefield 6 Open beta I get SERIOUS FPS and performance drops. Those always happen between few seconds. At first I thought it was just...

    Hi everyone,

    I had the same problem as you and I figured out how to solve it.

    First, create a file with Notepad called "user.cfg".

    Copy this inside and replace the 6 and 12 with your processor's specifications:

    Thread.ProcessorCount 6
    Thread.MaxProcessorCount 6
    Thread.MinFreeProcessorCount 0
    Thread.JobThreadPriority 0
    GstRender.Thread.MaxProcessorCount 12

    If you're not familiar with this, go into the game and enable the FPS indicator. There will be a green line in the top left corner with the processor's specification like for example for me:
    CPU Core: 12 Job threads: 6

    Place this file in the game folder.

    If you're on EA, you can enable the in-game overlay.

    If performance isn't good, and your graphics card uses Nvidia, go back to driver version 577.

    Edit: Freeing up space on the disk where Windows is installed for some people stabilizes the frame rate.

So just to be sure I'm doing this right 

CPU 13th gen Intel r core TM I-9 13900H

The green line says

CPU cores 20.   

Job threads 16 

 

Which do I choose

      Perfect I figured as much and did exactly that still having the same issue but it is maybe 20% better

      I also went back in to Nvidia and downloaded the older driver the 577 I have adjusted all of my settings and still having the same issue 

      I have an Intel i9 13900 h with a GeForce GTX 4060  and 16 GB of RAM
