I'm experiencing decreased performance in battlefield 4, i haven't had the opportunity to test other games yet. When I first bought battlefield 4 for my PC I could easily play the Ultra preset at 2x MSAA @1080p with 60 FPS, but now i cant even play on the high preset without the FPS constantly dropping down from 60 to 51 - 52. I do play with V-sync on.

What I've tried so far :
- I've re-installed Battlefield 4
- I've re-installed windows
- I've scanned for virus, but came up with nothing
- I've re-installed Nvidia drivers
- I've updated motherboard BIOS

My Specs
GPU - EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 770 Classified
CPU - Intel Core i5-4670K
Motherboard - Asus Z87-Pro
PSU - EVGA Supernova 850 G2
RAM - G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB)
HDD - Seagate Barracuda 1 TB

*my temps while playing for the CPU sit around 52 - 58, and for the GPU 74 - 78

344.60 has been causing issues for some. Try reinstalling or rolling back to 344.11, it seems to be the most stable currently.

Use DDU to uninstall the drivers, even if you are only reinstalling.

yes, i have and get around 70 - 80 (which is great), but i also get screen tearing along with that. what I would like to figure out is how i went from being able to used V-sync with Ultra/high preset and get a stable 60 FPS, but now I get dips down to the low 50s even on high preset with no anti-aliasing.
