As this issue seems to have been resolved with new drivers I'll mark this thread as solved now.
Hey guys,
I had the same problem on my Radeon HD 6950 card using the latest drivers. My game had no memory leak issues until recently when I started using the borderless window. Once I switch back to fullscreen mode, the memory leak seemingly stopped occuring for me, which I find quite strange.
So, if you're having this memory leak issue when running BF4 in borderless, try switching to fullscreen and see if it fixes the issue for you too.
EDIT: nevermind, I seem to just have had a good 5-10 game streak without memory leaking. it seems that this has NOT fixed the problem.
I would suspect the majority of us are running in Full Screen.
For the other user with the workaround just running in Windows 7 compatibility has stopped the memory leak for me but now I get random freezes/audio loops that stop the game entirely until I end the task in Task Manager. Maybe it would do this running in regular windows 8.1 mode as well but I'm not able to game long enough to know
i7 2600k @4.6GHZ
2X 6950
Windows 8.1 64 bits
Lastest AMD drivers
16GB of ram (so it is really hard for me to notice memory leaks)
happened like 10 times in my whole BF4 experience yet, seems to be fixed right now
