This seems to be a theme with the 7 series cards.. I know you have to update your bios from .ROM to .CAB for the 780 cards, don't know if thats the case for the lower ones. I'd look in to that.

For now, force off your V-sync, update your drivers. is the stuttering 24/7 or occasionally?

it seems that you have read my other thread...hahahaha...must have done a mistake!!
i have tried everything that has to do with settings on nvidia control panel(turning vcync on + off)...i have also tried unpacking cores,unistalling and installing gpu drivers,changing monitors but still...actually stutter is REALY visible(for me)only under 50 fps(for example exactly 49!!!!)....can this be a hdd issue???i have one 500gb caviar black and one really old 500gb baracuda!!!
 
disabling antialiasing will improve performance and minimise stutter considerably!espacially for battlefield 4 you could try disabling core parking. it works for me perfectly removing stutter completely on my 3770k it may work on the i5 also.you wont loose anything trying! i used this freeware http://www.coderbag.com/Programming-C/Disable-CPU-Core-Parking-Utility - Download application executable files .also try running the games on the caviar, if you arent already
 


well over 50fps is maxed out it is an good performance for your system. also disabling core parking might also give a bit of an fps boost. keep in mind these bf4-crysis3 ara also very cpu intensive titles. if you are seeking even better performance a cpu overclock will do so!make sure you get an aftermarket cpu cooler like evo 212 to run things cool and stable

You need 2x GTX780 Sli if you want to play BF4 on ultra and ALWAYS keep +60FPS. In BF4 lower your lighting quality, this affects shadows and performance should be a bit better. Also reduce effects quality. You wouldn't notice any difference in quality anyway.
