Why can't my AMD HD 7950 run Battlefield 4 on Ultra

aronotto · Jan 21, 2015

I have a
AMD FX 8350 Octa-core
16 Gb DDR Ram
AMD HD 7950
Why can't my computer run the game with 60 FPS ????

Justin Millard · Jan 21, 2015

That is normal. The HD 7950 is not quite powerful enough to achieve 60FPS at ultra settings in Battlefield 4.

Depends...what's the resolution you're using? 1080P or some UHD res? The 7950 on most benchmarks does not break through to 60 FPS at 1080P...runs between 46-38 FPS.

The cheapest graphics cards that can achieve 60FPS 1080p in Battlefield 4 are the 7970GHz Edition, the R9 280X, and the GTX 960.

well that sucks because it was freaking expensive here in Iceland and 3GB overclocked can´t even play on ultra without lag

Justin Millard · Jan 21, 2015

You should get good frame rates using high settings at least. Best of luck to you!

Thank you very much

Try leaving MSAA off and use FXAA instead. MSAA Then try tweaking a few settings here and there to let the game run around ultra. Here's an interesting write up:

You should also try overclocking the 7950 to get a few more FPS out of it.

Well i have tried overclocking to the GPU clock to 1100 Mhz and the memory clock to 1200Mhz but the everything freezes and the computer crashes
am i doing something wrong?

RazerZ · Jan 21, 2015

No, the card might need more voltage (if you haven't changed this already) or those clocks might over be the limit the card can reach.

aronotto · Jan 21, 2015

im so sorry for the dummy question how do i change the voltage that goes into the card ?? as you said

RazerZ · Jan 21, 2015

Likely you didn't overclock the card properly if you don't know how to change the voltage.

Thanks a lot

RazerZ · Jan 21, 2015

No problem.

Feel free to choose RaserZ as providing best solution. I know some people appreciate the acknowledgement when they put the work in.

Turn off anti aliasing and lower shadows i think you will achieve 60 or more then,also lower terrain decoration and quality from ultra to high and im sure you will have 60+ and you even wont notice difference from high to ultra and one last thing ofc turn of Vsync so you are not locked at 60 fps..When you change video setting reload level so it takes full effect.

^.

I have a 7950 and know its capabilities well. I don't have any of the Battlefield games but I do have other AAA titles and with a few tweaks I can run them fine around ultra.

I could max out Battlefield 4 on 1080p and keep 60+ fps with a single HD 7950, so I don't know what you're talking about the card not being powerful enough. I could even run BF Hardline beta with 60 fps and 1080p max settings which is more demanding than BF4.
