If I recall correct some issues with the 970 cards :/ I would just run the game on low video settings for now to get the FPS up as well as read toms hardware regarding this card. The only other thing I can think to try this second is to turn down the resolution scale in game to get the FPS up, I just looked it up and found this to back it up...... " in game and resolution scale decreases the fps at 150%" source: Scroll down to Best solution... http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2555547/gtx970-fps-battlefield-low.html Edit ... try this... ingame under video... resolution scale to under 100 like 80 or 90 this will up you FPS
Edit just thought of this as well but it could just be a bad driver for the video card adding to this so if you want to try....
