Re: Performance Issues (Random lag spikes)

Your very welcome happy to try and help you 😕mileyhappy: So due to your PC specs and only have 4 gig ram I would test BF4 out on low settings to see if it helps make it more smooth 😕mileyfrustrated:

Edit .... I am blind just seen this .... I went into geforce experience and added Battlefield 4 to my games list, then I clicked on optimize. No evil program do your own settings never allow a program to do it this alone could make the issue. I will not even allow geforce experience on my game box yes I hate it this much.😕mileylol:

Also take a good hard look at programs and aps you have on when in BF4 turn them OFF in task manager what ever you can and test BF4. Some programs make mega issues in BF4 I have a small list below but I am sure more will be added to it in time...

Disable Mantle if you have it and try Direct X

Others have said if they uninstall MSI Afterburner issues / crashing is stopped. So if you have this installed remove program and test BF4. Also look at other programs as Fraps, Geforce experience, be sure to turn off the streaming function that is enabled by default ,Raptr, RivaTuner , ASRock eXtreme Tuner, Steam, Skype and xfire are known to make issues as well. And I am sure more programs not in my list yet turn one off at a time and test BF4. Since last patch more programs now give issues :/

Uninstall the HD Audio Driver from the video card driver install add/remove programs. This silly thing makes issues in BF4 for some. Reboot then repair BF4 to be safe.

What do you use to see FPS in game? If its fraps keep it off I can give you information on how to make a cfg to see fps in game if you want it.
