Try renaming the entire folder:

Relaunch game.

Here's a another random thing you can try messing with... I don't think a lot of those settings even work for this game. Framelimiter and Drawfps does tho so dunno how many actually do anything.
Open Notepad.
Copy and Paste this:

PerfOverlay.DrawGraph 0
PerfOverlay.DrawFps 1
PostProcess.DofMethod 0

You cannot have user.cfg.txt

I'm guessing you've uninstalled, reinstalled drivers. Have you tried uninstalling, safe mode, run cleaner (extra uninstaller), restart, install again?

Run a benchmark like Heaven or FurMark... just to rule anything further out.

I doubt it but people use this in BF4 but it's when it's already running pretty good to begin with.
