I am not sure if I get exactly the same issue, but what I do get is low FPS always. The game for me is unplayable at the moment. In any combat situation I get around 7 fps. After following some people's suggestions there was a small improvement in general FPS. But as soon as the action starts or randomly I get really low FPS. My freinds say I move like someone with parkinsons disease, its all jerky. When I see an enemy I often just die, and they teleport sometimes so I can't really aim. When I can aim its so jerky I'm normally dead before getting the cross hair moving.
Running an i5 750, 4GB RAM, Radeon HD 5850 graphics card.
Have disabled Origin in game. Troved the forum and this thread is the closest I found to my issue.
Gained a small increase in general performance with these settings:
perfoverlay.drawfps 1 (simply to keep an eye on what changes help)
renderdevice.renderaheadlimit 2
gametime.maxvariablefps 65
I've tried disabling 2 cores out of my four as suggested in other forums. This made it worse. Have taken off the park setting in Win 7 registry, this seemed to make little diference but if anything a small improvement.
Tips here seemed to help other people though, there is even a comment in there from a DICE empleyee:

Does anyone else have anything I can try. I'm very tempted to buy a new computer but am wary of it not solving my issues as others in other forums have i7's with the same issue etc.
Maybe I should have just asked for a refund but ideally I'd join my friends playing this game....
