GPU usage drops from 90% to 10%
Whenever I play the game after some time my GPU seems to drop and this results in a massive fps drop to 5 fps. I don't have any issues with other games and my drivers are updates. Does anyone else e...

Just a quick update to my report above.
I did some more testing and found something very interesting. I tried using the Nvidia App's global settings to cap my frame rate to 144 FPS to match my monitor's refresh rate.
The result was a noticeable change. The bad news is that the game-breaking stuttering is still present. The good news is that it took about twice as long to start, and the freezes happened less often.
This really seems to suggest that the bug is related to some kind of cumulative stress or resource issue that builds up over time. The lower, capped frame rate just makes that process take longer.
Thought I'd share as this might be a critical clue for the dev team. Hope this helps you guys track it down. Cheers.
Long shot: have you tried creating a text file called user.cfg in C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battlefield 6\ with the following parameters. The actual numbers depend on your CPU . Didn't work for me, but other claims it does.
user.cfg
Thread.ProcessorCount 12 << your cpu will be different so different number
Thread.MaxProcessorCount 12 << same as above
Thread.MinFreeProcessorCount 0
Thread.JobThreadPriority 0
GstRender.Thread.MaxProcessorCount 24 << your cpu count x2
Just wanted to post a massive thank you for this suggestion about the user.cfg file.
I was at my wit's end with this stuttering issue. I'd tried absolutely everything else and nothing worked. I was about to give up on the game.
Even though you mentioned it didn't work for you, I decided to give it a shot as a last resort.
It has completely fixed the problem for me.
The difference is night and day. I've now played for hours with no stuttering at all, even on High settings with my ultrawide monitor. The game is finally smooth and playable.
So, seriously, thank you again for posting this. You saved the day. Cheers!
