The game is completely stressing the out of my cpu. I can run on ultra spec, but because of the cpu bottleneck, my frames are bouncing everywhere (80-70-45-80-60-50-90 etc etc) it’s like a slide show. Any suggestions? Win 7 x64 i5 3570k oc’d @ 4.2 16 GB ram GTX 970 ---

Like Kadaz said, all the cores are maxed at 100%. There isn’t anything left to distribute to… That’s the issue that most have run into where only one was maxing out and disabling forced it to distribute correctly, if all are maxed out I personally haven’t seen any fix for that. I could’ve overlooked it. ---

A LOT of people are suffering from this right now, across all CPU gens (older and newer), DICE really needs to address this and fix it as even the beta did not push the CPU this hard. This is making more than capable GPU’s performance go to the crapper as framerates are going all over the place due to this. ---

My RAM was supposed to be running at 1800 Mhz but I noticed in bios that it was only running at 1117 Mhz. Changed it back to 1800 and got massive performance increase.

CPU utilization dropped 10% and GPU utilization increased by 20%. Not sure I can vouch for this. 16GB DDR4 3000mhz and my 6600k at 4.5ghz gets maxed out pretty often, especially in 64p. Considering that’s the recommended CPU, looks like poor optimization that needs patching. ---

Welcome to battlefield 1… Personalizing your experience… Bottlenecking the sh\*\* out of your cores… Have a levelcap video… Have a jackfrags video… Feeling better ? Enjoy ! Sincerely, Dice&Ea But really you need a better Cpu/Gpu, consider buying the Pc in jackfrags video, its only 8000$ ( true story ) 10 Cores, 20 threads, 2 Gpus so l33t that nasa will be jealous, then you can play at 60fps ! Have fun ! /s
