BF4 Tweaking Tips???

astrofighter122 · May 7, 2016

Hi, I have the following specs:
AND Athlon II X4 640
Zotac GTX 950 2GB
8GB RAM
Windows 7
I am for some reason getting framerate dips below 30 FPS at minimum settings 1920x1080 resolution on Battlefield 4. Anyone have a solution to solve this?

Which Geforce drivers are you using? Is your CPU and GPU running cool?

This, and how is your CPU usage?
Also, Windows 7 isn't good for Battlefield 4, I used to have drops all over the place with both my i5 2320 and 4690K with W7, Windows 10 runs it so much better.

Windows 8 pre-Geforce-360.xx drivers are proven to run the most stable with Battlefield 4. It has to be said that Win 10 is not the best OS for Battlefield 4 specifically right now. People report up to 30% frameloss in very specific areas on average. Siege of Shanghai one of the big culprits. Even high end systems suffer.

Would Battlefield 1 fare better?

The game isn't out yet, so I can't have the possibility of a clue. Nobody knows

So which driver version should I use? My current one is the latest one with game-ready drivers for Battleborn I think. And for me I can only use either Windows 7 or format my drive and get Windows 10.

RCFProd · May 8, 2016

After uninstalling your current drivers with Display Driver Uninstaller in SAFE MODE, try this driver:

But what's more important is that you don't have an overheating system. This won't help if your CPU is running 90 degrees for whatever reason.

Can't I just clean install Windows 10 and remove my drivers from formatting?

RCFProd · May 8, 2016

Yeah but clean install of Windows is a significantly longer process than removing GPU drivers. That's up to you really. Just make sure your temps are fine man that's way more important than everything else by a country mile. No confirmation if you checked it or not.

RCFProd :

How do you check?

RCFProd · May 8, 2016

HWMonitor is an option

or Passmark

If you're using HWMonitor, start a game, play it for a bit and then alt+tab out of the game to check your CPU and GPU temperatures. If It's above 80-90 it should be an alarm for overheating.

According to OCCT my CPU is a 63 degrees Celsius. Is this good or bad?

ChrisCarbomb · May 8, 2016

63 is fine. What about your gpu? Are you playing online? What's your power supply? What speeds are everything running at? Is vsync on? Ive never had any headaches playing this at 1440p online on either win 7 or 10 yet. Get a crash twice a month maybe
