Alt-tabbing locks framerate to 30 and applies major input lag.

Platform: PC
Issue: After alt-tabbing, or hitting the Windows button and I tab back into the game again, the FPS is locked  to 30 and displaying terrible mouse input lag.
Can you reproduce this issue 100% of the time: YES! EVERY. ****. TIME!
Details on how to reproduce the issue: Alt-tab, that's it. Does not matter if I am in game, campaign or multiplayer, or in any of the game's menus, the Instant I am outside of the game for whatever reason and whatever time, as soon as I tab back in, the game sits on 30 fps and mouse input is like .5 to a full second behind whatever action I take.
A restart of the game fixes the issue 100% of the time, though it's extremely annoying having to restart the game each time I want/need to do something out of the game before I can continue playing.

I have repared the game once, only thing I have not tried yet that I can think of personally is a Complete reinstall of the game.


Processor (CPU): Intel Core i7-6700k CPU @ 4GHz (8 CPUs)
Graphics Card (GPU): Nvidia GTX 1070
Memory: 32 GB
Operating System: Windows 10 home 64 bit
Running the latest Nvidia drivers, Version 376.33 (The issue has persisted over every driver Version since launch)
I have tried disabling the Origin in-game overlay, it made no difference.

    On a Fellow players request, I went to settings - Video - Advanced settings - V-sync, and changedv-sync from Adaptive V-sync Half Refresh to disabled,

    I could swear I had tried that before but for some reason it worked out now.

    I am tabbing back and forth and the game behaves as it should, no more stuck on 30 fps with major input lag! I am in Titanfall heaven!

    Consider my problem solved!

    Hello @Valmarki 

    Can you disable Origin in-game for Titanfall 2? The option to do it is in the game properties menu, and in the general Origin client settings. Disable both and try to reproduce this issue. 

    Keep me posted.

    Cheers,

    Suppose I am a bit late in my reply.

    As you might have seen in my original post I have already tried disabling the origin overlay, though this time both the one in game properties as well as the "main one" in origin itself without any vvisible change.

    Video of the problem: https://youtu.be/D26X5yG9Yxo

    I did however manage to get Windows to "partially" tab so that the windows bar was still being shown, and it locked the FPS to 60 instead of 30 and without any input lag.

    It was playable, though of course I would very much prefer to be completely fullscreen when playing.

    Second video showcasing 60 fps and windows bar: https://youtu.be/Inrh3mWzl90

     
    Also updated dxdiag if that's of any consequence.
     
    Edit: Have by now tried reinstalling Origin, Titanfall 2, Nvidia's software, game driver, All of it from scratch.

    Should I make a new post?

    Hello @Valmarki 

    No need for a new post, we can continue from this point. Can you try to load your system using Clean Boot and try to launch the game again? Keep us posted.

    Cheers,
