Extremely ridiculous performance issues

AMD FX-8 seem to have BF4 freeze issues :

Check that your drivers are up-to-dates

Try to run x86 BF4 insteat x64
In last choice if your motherboard support it try to disable some core of your AMD 8 core CPU (i am not sure that can help you, but disable hyperthread on intel CPU correct some freezes issues)

I hoppe that can help you   :robotsad:

It's not so much that it's freezing, it still runs, but at an extremely low framerate. I'm not sure disabling my cores would ultimately fix the issue, as i've seen people with similar builds running the game perfectly fine without alterations to their hardware, and i'm relatively certain that my processor is not the cause of my ridiculously low fps in game. Games such as battlefield 3, Skyrim, far cry 3, and others all run perfectly fine at a steady 50fps or higher. I would understand if it maybe ran at 20-40fps, but not 1-5fps lol.

Try to run x86 instead x64 BF4 i have read that can perhaps correct some performance issue

Perhaps u can try too to put your antivirus/firewall in game mode

Run it on 1-5fps for ur hardware is not normal :robotsad:

Currently reinstalling it as precaution, if it still doesnt work i'll give that a try. And yeah i know it isn't normal, and 1-5 fps is understating it lol... I've been playing arma 3 for the past few weeks with no performance issues on ultra settings, this seems like a rather large issue, but i'm probably doing something stupid that's causing it, though i have yet to figure out what that stupid thing is hahah.

Perhpas u can try to install it on a new fresh window 7 install in double boot option

ehh... I'd rather just not play it than completely reinstall windows, and i'd have no idea how to go about "double boot"ing it lol...

how arent you seeing this issue all over the internet theres even an artical written about it. I also have your issue aswell and did you not see all the other questions of similar titles? but never the less dont worry its prbs the most common issue which we can hope will be fixed soon.

As i said... I havent searched through the forums here, and have only seen one other person having a similar issue to mine elsewere on the web, and his solution was litarally impossible to perform, being that it required setting  origin to install games to program files rather than program files (x86). Origin gives you an error stating games cant be installed to program files due to some games that can be installed wont operate properly from it and auto changes the directory to program files (x86), and as far as i know theres no way to override that... Other issues here that i've seen are peoples games just upright freezing or crashing/ disconnections/ having fps in the 30-40 range, which seems a bit ridiculous to bitch about, and none of those are my issue, so i'm not sure what you mean by it being the most common problem, so if you could provide a link to an article instead of dicking about it, that would be awesome.

Personnaly, I think re-install BF4 would not help, but u can try. Scincerly i'am disarmed, I just solved my BF4 micro-freeze prob and random crash prob 4 hours ago with uninstalling my antivirus/firewall solution and disable i7 hyperthreading in the bios  :robotsad:

I'm having this exact same problem.

Here are my specs:

AMD Athlon II X4 620 at 2.6

eVGA GTX 660 TI

8 gig ram

Windows 7 Home Premium 64

I've tried playing on the normal version and 64 bit version. I've cleaned out my computer and defrag'd it. Used NVidia's GeForce Experience to optimize game settings. I've even tried going back to the 327 gpu driver.

I know I don't have the fastest machine out there but its not too much below Recommended Requirements, and I'm kinda pissed I just dropped $65 on a game I can't play.
