Core packing worked for me!

I suggest you to use this program guys. http://http://bitsum.com/about_cpu_core_parking.php
With this program you can adjust the core parking individualy at all power plans, so this way you can still use Power Saver functions at windows.
I have :
- Balanced power plan ( default win7 )
- High Performance (core parking disabled)
So i created a shortcut to desktop for power plan options (go to control panel > power options and drag its link to desktop), and when i am at desktop when not playing games, i am using balanced power plan. When i am about to begin to play games, i switch to High performance. When i am done with games, i switch back to balanced. And seriously this problem is so bad, i have 4770k , and still getting micro freeze / stutter at "Balanced" power plan. When i switch to High performance (no core parking) its smooth as butter.

Please include the following info at the top of your post:
- CPU, GPU(s), RAM amount (note any overclocking on these items too)
- Video driver version
- OS type and version
- Any fixes you've tried already
System:
- i7 2600k, EVGA GTX 580SC, 16 GB RAM
- GeForce R331 (331.65)
- Windows 7 HP SP1 (Build 7601), 64-bit
- Changed graphics settings from low to ultra, manual update of Punkbuster via pbsetup, ran the DX install in the BF4 folder
Symptoms: An intermittent, brief freeze of video while performing any action within BF4, more frequently seen (by myself) when making quick turns or other fast activities. Tried video settings of low through ultra without making a difference. I know this isn't my hardware configuration as my FPS, when not stuttering, is stable between 90-150FPS at low graphics settings. If my hardware were not up to spec then my framerate would never reach or maintain acceptable levels when not stuttering. I note that my GPUs RAM goes to 100% utilization while CPU goes above 80%. During play Task Manager indicated these numbers.
