Terrible FPS
In both cutscenes and gameplay my game has awful fps. It doesn't matter if the graphics are on high or low it's just terrible. It's making me really mad because I just got this computer in August and...

I was just going to post this! I did this and it works perfectly so I chose this as the solution. I hope it fixes your problems too.
Edit: I just relised it doesn't fix the problem for people with other graphics cards. I'm sorry hopefully it can be fixed just as easy.

...and it doesn't totally fix all FPS drops, some seem randomly. Still, between this and disabling origin and online options I have an almost playable game. EA you still need to patch this game!
The question is my friend, why do they need to patch this game?
I mean, we already payed, so... why care about us anymore? Their product is out, is badly optimised, but people are still buying it. It literally makes no sense from a business perspective to patch it and waste money on it. True, patching it would not be costly, but still, those dollars could buy a EA ceo a coffee and a bagle he wouldn't have otherwise.
My ranting aside, seriously, if this turns out to be cause by the DRM than I bet, once someone pirates the game, it will turn out that the pirate version will run a lot more smoothly than our payed versions. And really, that is simply the most annoying perspective, and "screw you" from EA to their customers ever...
you might be right.

What does EA care if DRM only hurts or stops paying customers? We paid! >.>
Well they do have future releases, so they are invested to at least attempt to solve the problem, so that we purchase future titles.

EA and Bioware are seriuos companies.
I play Bioware games from Baldur'g gate times in all these years they always demonstrated their attention to the customer.
DAI is a strategic asset for both companies.
But for sure all the issues on PC version are a problem. QA was not so good and i think that EA forced the release (we are near Christmas time) even if well knowing these issues.
That is why they will patch and they will do enough soon, i guess.
UPDATE:
I have 2-3 posts under this topic.Just a reminder, I have a high-end PC with GTX 980 SLI and i5 3570k with 4.3ghz
As I mentioned before no matter which settings I use game was always between 40-80 FPS bouncing all over the place, lowering the DETAILS didnt help, it just stayed at same FPS range with lesser load on GPUs.
Today I installed WINDOWS 8.1 (I hate it honestly, but wanted to give it one more try) The performance difference is HUGE, I never dip below 70 FPS now everything at ULTRA at 2560x1440 resolution.
I am no windows fan boy, honestly I really hate windows 8.1 but if you are a WIN7 user and have a win 8.1 disc around just like me, give it a try. You will see the huge performance gain with almost no stutter. At least until it gets fixed on win7.
