Horrible stuttering every second after 5 minutes of play. Multiplayer is unplayable. Even though I can run at 120 frames on high for a little while.
Win 8.1
HD 6990
Phenom ii x4 965 BE
SSD
16GB RAM
150Mb/s broadband. Average ping for servers I play on 12-30
Attempted fixes:
Complete win 8 reinstall
Tried on 8 and 8.1
Disabling firewall, security and AV
Complete reinstall of the game
Tried installing on SSD, HDD and external HDD
Tried core unparking
All graphics settings combinations both in game and via catalyst
Tried 4 different drivers including latest and beta
Updated all firmware and bios for all hardware and tried multiple combinations
Switched around RAM and ran hardware diagnostic
Limited variable frame rate
Changed virtual memory to recommended, system managed, disabled and 5000MB
Reinstalled directx
Reinstalled framework
Reinstalled punkbuster
Tried disabling superfetch and prefetch
Tried various combinations of network smoothing
Ran game as admin
Ran origin as admin
Ran in 32 and 64 bit mode
Ran with various compatibility options
Tried user.cfg fixes
Tried running from another network
Unplugged various hardware
Tried emptying RAM stanby list as well as a few other RAM tweaks
Tried small and big servers. Smaller servers work better.
Tried fixing the install
Tried updating
Fiddled with input devices and controls
Changed sound settings and audio devices
Tried borderless mode and windowed mode
Tried changing priority to high and low
Tried overclocking and undeclocking my card
Looked into NET framework
Turned on and off various processes
I spent more time trying to fix this than playing.
Games like CS:Go, Skyrim, Arma 3, Batman AO, X-com, BC2 run flawlessly maxed out.
Have 60+ FPS when I'm not stuttering all over the place. Multiplayer is completely unplayable at the moment.
