It seems like people with top of the line i7’s are the only ones who can keep the game at a consistently good frame rate.

Its a weird thing. ---

> [@GinkaiSensei](#): > > If anyone is experiencing poor fps with a high end rig, like i7 with gtx 1070 or 1080 but you can only get 40-60 fps for no reason.. > I just had that problem and it was bugging the hell out of me, the game was unplayable even though I had above recommended specs. > I tried everything I was reading, but one thing I didn’t try was moving my graphics card to the 1st slot. I know that sounds like I’m dumb, but I had it in the 2nd slot and had no problems with other games. For some reason BF1 will only run properly with the GPU in the 1st slot. I went from 40-60fps on low, to 80-120fps on ultra, just from switching it to the 1st slot. > I hope this helps anyone! 🙂 Sounds like you had it in the PCI-e 4x slot rather than the x16 slot. That will limit your GPU’s power to some extent, its not a BF1 only thing ---

GTX 970 MSI AMD FX 8350 Windows 10 64-bit 16GB RAM Dropping from 70-80 fps on Ultra-settings to about 10 fps every thirty seconds for a duration of about 3 seconds, which makes it quite hard to play the game online. ---

I’m also experiancing the same exact issue. My work PC where I play BF1 is, AMD FX-8350 16Gb RAM Asus Sabertooth 990FX 2.0 EVGA 960 SSC I was running a 980 FTW and was getting the same issue. My Home PC has no issues. The specs of that are, Intel 6700K @ 4.5Ghz 16Gb DDR4 RAM EVGA 1080FTW I thought at first it was an AMD only thing but it seems as if some Intel people are affected as well. Although I see a lot of other people on here with 8350’s. ---

Same issues here. CPU does not go above 65°C and is 100% stable up to 72.3°C i5 4670 GTX 760SC 2X SLI Windows 7 64bits 16Go DDR SSD Raid 0. My internet is fine and all the required ports are open. The Beta was 100% fine in medium without any FPS drops. Now I cant run on low without getting drops and stuttering. I even copied the settings from the beta profile directly into the config files. It seems like a memory leak (CPU leak ?) of some kind. I use DX11. BF4 is maxed in 1080p without any issues. ---

> [@Nimphas](#): > > One tip. Turn OFF gpu memory restriction if you have a 4,6 or 8GB video card. Only leave it ON if you have a 2 or 3GB card. I was dumb enough to leave it ON with a 6gb card, i gained like 10-15 fps when i turned it OFF. interesting yesterday i change graphic settings from custom to ultra, and turned on GPU restriction and the game honestly has ran alot better. Still have some random FPS drops but not as bad as before. i5 4690k AMD R9 390x 8GB Ram [Previous page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/battlefield-1-fps-drops/102531.md?page=9) [Next page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/battlefield-1-fps-drops/102531.md?page=11)
