I had the same problem. After I disabled windows updates it worked very well for me.
This may also work for you guys, the info below I found on this website: http://segmentnext.com/2016/10/19/battlefield-1-errors-crashes-freezing-fps-performance-black-screen-directx-and-fixes/
Open CMD as an admin, then type: “Net Stop wuauserv” (without quotation marks of course), then check in Task manager if it’s disabled there. I hope this works for you.

Locked my FPS at 60. Most times about 40-55 FPS on lowest settings. Without locking my framerate I can reach up to 70 FPS. But only if there isn’t any action. So I’m nearly always down at 50 FPS or lower. Changing to a mix between medium and high doesn’t make a huge difference.
I can’t play Operations because of a Direct X error.
This is just terrible…
Dropping to mid 40s at times on some maps

DICE needs to sort this out, I’d like to buy games that actually work.
Having 40-60 FPS on lowest settings. When I was playing closed aplha and open beta I was having over 90FPS on medium/high settings.

That is weird, I have the same setup and I get around 100 fps on Ultra (90 -110) depending on the map at 1440p. No crashes, no problems what so ever.
Had a different FPS drop issue. Was playing a few games and had GPU near 100%, CPU around 50% and FPS hovering around 70. After awhile, the FPS dropped to around 30, GPU went to ~50% with huge spikes in frametime.
I also have hard FPS issues. It’s unplayable unless i put EVERYTHING on the lowest settings, but I still get FPS-drops then.
DICE, please fix.

I have the same dip from 130ish to 20 or lower, but it doesn’t seem to effect my gameplay. I get no stutter/freezing and my CPU usage is normal when it happens. I use Precision X to monitor FPS so I kept Precision X open and also enabled the in-game FPS overlay and they did not match up. Precision X reported 20 FPS, while the in-game never went below 90FPS on ultra. Try it yourself and let us know what you get.

Getting framedrops to 40-50 fps mostly when watching over open fields but can happen whenever. The drop last around 2-3 sec and this annoys me ^^ I bought an upgrade to play flawlessly

It’s unplayable, I keep experiencing drops from the 60s to the 40s-30s everytime I look at open areas ( and changing settings doesn’t help ).
DICE, will you ever release a game that works 100% at launch?
Sometimes I get alot of stuttering acociated witch that red icon in the corner which means that my frames are below 60 fps which they are not, I get around 75-100 fps with a gtx 1060 6gb and an I5 6400. This causes the game to stutter and sometimes it is gamebreaking. Btw it ONLY stutters when the icon appear, help would be appriciated 
Same here. Changing to low or ultra has no impact in the stuttering. Fps keep flutuating between 40 - 60 fps (both singleplayer and multiplayer), causing scrren locks for less than 1 second. This is more noticeable in monte Grappa map. Other maps like Argonne i can maintain constant 60 fps.

If you’re using an Nvidia card, set your maximum pre-rendered frames to 1 and your power management settings to “Prefer Maximum Performance”.
I was having the same ridiculous issues in BF Hardline and Overwatch as well before making those adjustments.
Guyz I am also experiencing fps drops that occur randomly, going from 60-70 fps down to 10 etc.. Really annoying as you can imagine.
Also i am experiencing a weird effect right after the match on the waiting screen(showing the highlights etc) the fps goes literally to 0 and comes back again.

@Lazy1nc ok ill give that a try and report back thanks
Same here.
@Lazy1nc Thank you very much my friend that indeed seems to fix it for me. no more fps drops.
Good to know man. ^^
I’m also getting random stuttering/hitches in both single and multiplayer. FPS counter is all over the map. I could be at 80fps and then hitch down suddenly to 40fps, and then back up to 80fps. There’s no consistency. In the beta, it was silky smooth maintaining 60+. It’s there even when I drop all settings to low detail. I’m at a complete loss now with troubleshooting. Is my CPU potentially the culprit here? It’s been going strong for me up until now. Man, I felt so confident with that beta performance too…ugh.
