CPU/GPU Spikes, Stuttering, Rubberbanding, Framerate drops, etc
It would be nice if this issue would finally be acknowledged. It's great that you are redirecting us here but a week and half later and we still have no official word regarding this issue which is making the game unplayable and effecting a lot of people. Here we go again:
My System:
Intel i5 750
4GB DDR3
Nvidia 560 GTX
Windows 7 64 bit.
The things I tried:
- Custom config with recommended tweaks.
- Change all the settings to low.
- Run the 32 bit version.
- Update all my drivers (Directx, Videocard, Windows update, etc)
- Reinstall the game.
- Unpark CPU cores or park them (both were suggested)
- Change Physx setting in Nvidia Control Panel.
- Close all other programs, including Chrome, when the game is starting.
- Reinstalling Directx. Reinstalling all the executables in in the Battlefield folder.
- Reinstalling Microsoft Framework.
- Changed Nvidia Control Panel settings to Max Pre-Rendered Frames to 1. Also disabled Geforce experience and did a clean install of the drivers without installing the HD audio driver.
- Danced around the PC naked while doing an Voodo enchantment.
It's not a lag issue. Be it SP or MP. The game has a massive CPU/GPU spike every couple of seconds which causes stutter. Regardless of what's going on in game btw (even when idling). There's no way around this. A couple of my friends are experiencing the same issue. All them are on Nvidia cards. Two of my friends have Ati cards and they aren't experiencing problems.
I hope to hear from you Dice. I can be patient. But please acknowledge this issue.
If you need anything else, please let me know.
Let me quote this from a benchmark site:
Results clearly show that the game runs much better on Windows 8.1 than on Windows 7. When releasing Windows 8′s vanilla version, Microsoft announced better performance with multicore CPU’s, especially with AMD’s FX CPUs. What Microsoft said, Microsoft delivered. It is perfectly fine that new operating system brings better performance but we do not know why there is so much stuttering with Windows 7 OS. When we say stuttering we are not referring to frame drops or even Frametiming, we tested all that and it brought us nothing. We believe that Framerating techniques would show what the users and we as well have experienced, however at the time of testing we didn’t have adequate equipment to prove these claims but you can be sure that this is something we are going to be dealing with in the future.
