Well if you have at least the drivers for your motherboard that came on the disk with the motherboard then they should work and although they may not be as up to date as possible they should work well enough and since your gpu drivers are updated properly there shouldn't be a problem. I wouldn't pay to get drivers installed though because it is as simple as going to the manufacturers website, finding your model and then just downloading all of them but you don't have to if you don't want. the ones on the disk will be fine and shouldn't effect fps drops much.

The only reason I can then think of is that either your GPU isn't fast enough or you are exceeding the memory on the GPU. Exceeding the memory dramatically effects performance and...

Exceeding the memory dramatically effects performance and can be a killer to frame rates so if you could find some way to measure how much of your GPU memory is being utilised then you could check to see if that is the problem.

Ok, thanks both of you, that makes sense with CSGO cause in BF4 all settings high on 1920x1080 I have some frame drops but arent too many and arent to bad.
