I have Xfinity's latest modem/router. Generally I get a ping of around 20. Although after the last update, it seemed everyone was experiencing higher than normal pings. I don't see much of the game warning symbols anymore. Maybe a frame rate warning now and then. But even those have diminished since I am now keeping AMD's free sync on all the time. The game will still just freeze and crash in the middle of a game. But, not as often. I will uninstall and reinstall the game after running DISM and SFC on Windows. To make sure system files aren't corrupt. Or, I'll run repair and reboot. This usually takes care of the issue for awhile at least. It also doesn't seem to matter how I change settings in either the game properties or in Origin. It is still a mystery to me.
This one's more of a fix/troubleshooting but I've found it common enough on certain modem/router devices that it warrants a mention.
+ Latency Variation (FIX)- If you get the symbol below, you are having latency variation issues. That basically means that your latency, or "ping", is not consistent enough and jumps around, which may be responsible for a significant amount of lag on your end. To resolve this issue, I've found that a hard reset of the modem/router works best.
1. Unplug your modem's power for 5 minutes.
2. Plug it back in, and wait 2 minutes as it loads back up.
3. Repeat these first 2 steps for the router.
If you have a modem-and-router-in-one, then you can ignore step 3. If you're still experiencing issues with your modem, then you may want to dig a bit deeper and see if it may be a hardware issue.
Jump below to "What different in-game symbols mean" to see the complete list of symbols. Note, the image below shows you the latency variation image in BFV, which is a bit different from what you see in the image (which is from BF1).
Best of all is power, example of the power I'm pumping is crazy.
Running m.2 raid
130 watts of dedicated cpu power
tpu 3
1500 watt psu
3603 xmp extreme profile
200fps and better sli bf5
Most importantly never install any windows update
all other settings dont matter with this type of power.
My graph chart is a steady power bar with little to no -+
Proof that those claim windows 10 and overclocking is havoc. I beg to differ. These numbers are not temporary number
