Solved

Frames per second capped at 30

Hello,

Normally I get ~100 fps while playing battlefield 3 with my GTX 680 and 3570k but I started playing again and the game seems capped at 30fps.
I already tried the commands: WorldRender.DxdeferredCsPathenable 1 and gametime.maxvariablefps 60.
I have also tried to ''repair'' battlefield 3.
I also did a ''clean install'' of my Nvidia driver (version: 347.52)
How can I solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    • Try to reinstall the game.
    • Delete the configuration file settings of the game. (My Documents--folder Battlefield 3)
    • Completely remove and re-install the driver for your graphics card.
    • Check for updates your Windows.
    • Clean the system. (AdvancedSystemCare or CCleaner)
    • Try turning off antivirus.
    • Try disabling the option "Origin in the game"
    • Try to clean boot your PC. How to clean boot your PC or MAC

    Good luck.

    Have you tried deleting your config files in your documents folder?

    I can't find a config file in my documents folder.
    Documents/settings only has the folders meta.xml and 3 prof_save *** files. I don't see user.cfg
    I have tried to search it on my computer but I only find user.cfg files from other games. 
    I have removed the Battlefield 3 documents folder then ''repaired'' the game and restarted my pc but I still can't find the file.
