I encounter lag after about 15 minutes into the game. When I first boot up the game is runs like a dream but the lag slowly builds. After 20 minutes, I can freeze for 5-7 seconds. Sometimes the game crashes.
Specs:
GTX 560Ti
i5 2500
4GB
Win 7
What is your ingame video-setup and have you checked if there is an update for your video-card driver available? Please open your Origin client, go to your "Application Settings" and head over to the "In Game" tab. Uncheck the Origin in-game overlay and test if that will solve your issue.
Cheers
Basti
My current Origin Settings:
Origin In-game; unchecked
Game properties: Disable Origin In-game
My Video Settings:
1366x786
GFE Optimized: a mix of low. ultra and high
I have also tried Low and Medium which is worse, the lag seems to last longer. Ultra is also worse but, more consistently I can't reach 60 Fps unlike lower settings.
No V-Sync
Video driver 337.88; Just updated to 340 beta driver. Have yet to try it with this driver (released yesterday)
Hi gkibarricade make sure all this below is done as well as ..
Uninstall the HD sound driver our nvidia card driver installs Reboot and repair game to be safe.
Run the game as Administrator:
Go to the Origin games folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4) and find Bf4.exe. Right click it and go to PROPERTIES, then COMPATIBILITY and check the box next to RUN THIS PROGRAM AS ADMINISTRATOR.
Do the same with BF4_x86.exe as well.
Run Origin as Administrator:
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin and right click on Origin.exe and go to properties. Then go to compatibility tab and check the box next to RUN AS ADMIN.
Disable Origin in game:
In Origin - Application settings - Origin in Game - disable Origin in game
Origin Cloud Storage turn it off
Origin, settings, General
If it still crashes I can give you steps on how to check and fix windows errors :]

ok have you tried this yet...
BF4 folder in my documents holds game configs and screen shots even if BF4 is installed on different drive. When you uninstall BF4 it does NOT remove this folder. So when you install the game again you can still have the same issues.
1- Go to my Documents and remove BF4 folder place it on your Desktop or trash.
2- Be warned you do have to set up your in game settings again.
3-Repair BF4
4- When done go test your game.
Also are you using any programs in game if so test one at a time...shut one off test BF4 etc

I tried:
Removing the BF4 docs folder
Repairing the Game (agian)
Yet and I find it way worse now, I barely last 3 minuntes til I'm lagging for 3-5 seconds at a time every 10 seconds or so. I even tried to back to my old settings of 0 Network Smoothing and Borderless (per another forum suggestion) also I couldn't let GFE Optimize the settings so I just changed from AUTO to LOW. It barely made a difference. I'm going to try to just reinsert my old folder that I made a copy of. Also, if you should add to your tips that they will also have to reinstall the battlelog plugin

EEk thats crazy, You are not even on a AMD card so its not mantel issues.
You know what do this just to rule it out. if you get errors once they are fixed then repair game again then test BF4
Test your windows for errors
This works in all windows O/S vista Win7, Win8 and Win8.1 windows system file checker :] Copy and past this to note pad and put it on your desktop. As open programs can give you errors when you run this.
...... sfc /scannow ..... ever hear of it if not your going to love this .... it will inspect all the important windows files as well as the windows DLL files. If windows system file checker finds any issues with the windows files and windows DLL files it will replace them. This little tool as well as the event viewer saved me and fully helped me fix my BF4 issues as well as saved my .... many a format since I found it. This is the best toy they ever put in windows :]
For win7 go to start left click in search type cmd and right click cmd pick run as admin
For win 8.1 right click start bottom left of screen and pick command prompt admin
1 - Open administrator command prompt and close web pages and programs like origin.
2 - Type or copy and paste in sfc /scannow and hit enter, This takes 5 min to 15 min SSD vs HD
3 - This can go one of a few ways ..... no errors ... it fixed some errors ..... could not fix all errors...... does not finish checking and errors out ....... and the last one could not fix errors at all :/
4 -After its done reboot and do it again even if you had no errors the first time or had errors, could not fix ... run sfc /scannow again and when its done a second time reboot. You need to do this a and get no errors 2 x in a row ...
5- So if you ran it 2x and no errors your safe you can stop now for now lol, If you had errors first time but not the second then run sfc /scannow again and when its done reboot. You need to get could not find any errors 2 x to be safe. If it still finds errors try and run it a few more times until it finds no errors 2x AND ALWAYS REBOOT BETWEEN RUNNING sfc /scannow
6 - If you get a message indicating that it can not be repaired and you ran sfc /scannow more then 3x in a row on win vista or 7 mm you need a format or try repair win 7 :/ But after format or repair and all updates are done run sfc /scannow to make sure your windows is stable same deal 2x error free reboot between them.
If your O/S is Win8 or Win 8,1 then you can run this next command / line in administrator command prompt. Sadly this does not work for win vista or 7 :/ It will restore the health of your PC and you dont lose anything and it will also fix errors in the registry :]
dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth ------- ONLY works for windows 8 and 8.1
7 - When its done reboot
