The problem is in the topic.
My rig: I5 4690K 4.2 + GTX 970 + 8GB RAM.
I get around 35-40 frames in the town. Somewhere FPS is stable 60, but the most deep drop I got on the top of the one of skyscrapers in town.

There u can see that GPU usage is incredibly low. Nothing helps. I've tried to switch off V-sync (this screenshot was taken without V-sync, btw)
Help me pls. And yeah, I know that there are lots of same topics but no advice from there have helped so I decided to create my own.

UPD: In other games everything is OK, My OC is win7 x64. BF1 runs well, for example. Changing settings dont really help.
 
Solution
Reduce shadow distance to medium/low. Your CPU will not be able to handle Ultra on scenes where there are dozens of building casting shadow. It's just the way the engine is.
