BF4 PC Memory leaking? 94% Memory usage with 12GB

This is a really strange problem.

I've crashes but not this one.

My specs:

- Windows 8 Pro;

- 32Gb RAM;

- i7 4770 (no K or S);

- nVidia GTX660 (drivers 331.65 WHQL).

BF4 only uses 6Gb of RAM but the memory leak happens to my brother that 12Gb out of 16Gb are used by the game, he is on W7 64bit.

I just wanted to say that I too am suffering from this memory leak. I know it's happened multiple times on Flood Zone.

Windows 8.1 x64 - 8GB RAM

I am having the same issue! So sick of the bugs with this game. I have 16gb of 2100 ddr 3. Play for about 30 mins and get the leak. Really frustrating.

we want answers

I played about 10 rounds without a leak without doing anything, I think it's random and I think all these fixes are just coincidence.

Imagine if EA came out and gave us all discounts on Premium for admittedly releasing a bugged untested game just to beat out COD's release date?  Even going as far as lying to Japanese players so they'd preorder thinking they got it the same time we did, when in fact it released 1-2 days after COD did in Japan lol.

Naw that would never happen, that would prove they aren't just money hungry and actually care about their customers.

Add me to the list too. I have windows 8.1 - it would seem there is a memory leak in the app. I doubt this is the driver. I upgraded from 8 to 8.1 recently but never had the game prior to upgrading to 8.1.

I agree this appears to be an application issue, not a windows or driver issue.

First 2 days of the game release was perfect.. i had 0 crashes.

All of a sudden i started getting BSOD & Huge Lag due to the Memory Leaks. So many crashes i had to rebuild my OS due to such bad OS corruption from BSOD.

Recent AMD "beta driver" 9.2 at least crashes BF4 and gives me a DirectX Error instead of BSOD.
But today.. EVERY game i have to reboot my PC once it is over.. Or i will just crash cause i have no ram left.

I've tried every Beta driver from 1-9.2.
Every beta driver from 1-8 will BSOD the computer 50-75% of the time during memory leaks.
9.2 defiantly saves you from BSOD but still have to reboot PC.

After i rebuilt the desktop i left it at Windows 8 instead of migrating to 8.1 to experiment. Didn't really help any.

I have also tried playing the game low graphics, Medium Graphics & High Graphics.. Nothing seems to really matter.

I'm having the same issue. It's really frustrating to say the least to get suckered into paying $120 for the map packs and premium for this game and it isn't even close to being finished. Don't get me wrong the game is fantastic, WHEN IT WORKS.

I'm also having a huge memory leak problem... I've updated the drivers to the beta and ended up rolling back because they didnt help a bit. Most of the time I can make it through a game or two before it freezes up and then I have to go into the BIOS and reset the DIMM voltage just to clear it. Simply restarting doesn't help. GET THIS FIXED DICE! BF4 is the only game that causes the RAM to max out like this. 

I called EA the day after the release of this game and while they were exremely friendly offered no help to this issue. I see 10 days later after the game is launched not much has changed? Also had one "red screen" crash and multiple random game crashes. 

I even tried the regedit trick and it didn't help either.
