BF3 Lags and I don't know why
Greetings!
I'm experiencing an performance issue with the Battlefield 3 game. It lags constantly, its impossible to play like this.
This started not long ago, about a week or so. Tricky is: all my other games works perfectly. BF4 works...
All I did was updating my graphics card drivers to the latest version through the AMD Gaming Evolved software and the problem started a few days later.
Oh, I've uninstalled the Battlefield Hardline after the beta ended.
For correcting this issue I've tried:
Downgrade my GPU drivers;
Reinstall GPU drivers with the latest software avaliable;
Downloading the beta drivers;
Repair the game within Origin;
Reboot the computer;
Lowering the video graphics options inside the game;
Optimizing to better performance using the AMD Gaming Evolved software;
Restore Windows to a previous backup point...
None of those work.
The problem is with BF3 only. I can play BF4 just fine at Ultra Settings.
My configurations:
Intel i7 Processor 3770 3.40 GHz Octa-core
AMD Radeon HD 6870 2GB GDDR5
8GB RAM Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600
1TB HD 7200RPM Sata 3 6GB/s transfer
MB ASUS P8Z77-V LX2
Windows 8.1 x64
The game should run smoothly... I don't understand why the game lags so much...
Don't remember if there was an automatic update from Origin or not.
Please help?
I heard that the problem may be caused from an update of Origin.
Try disabling the option "Origin in Game" by right-clicking BF3 in the library, then select "Game Properties" and tick the option "disable Origin in Game for this title"
