I get stuttering despite high fps every couple of seconds. I have the latest drivers, disabled origin IN game, uninstalled shadowplay. Unparked CPU, etc. Seems like NOTHING helps. I even put an FPS cap of 60 and then used low settings and it would still stutter. I even turned off dx12 and it did nothing.

Here are my specs

i5 3570k @ 4.7 ghz  
gtx 780  
16gb ram  
2 x 500gb Samsung 840 ssd in raid 0  
msi z77 mobo  
win 7

I am considering just building a whole new PC with windows 10. Can anyone report me their specs (CPU and GPU) and let me know if they also get stuttering? I am using a 1440p asus monitor at 144hz. I set the settings to low and it still does it. I am very sensitive to this type of thing.

You can check my rig in the signature. Slightly older parts, but runs the game perfectly on full ultra with 125% res. scale. I think your issue maybe the i5 CPU and GPU

Are you sure you arn’t noticing any hitching? I put the graphics to low and tried the low resolution and set a 60fps cap. It was a lot smoother but still dipped. My CPU is only 30% utilization during that time so I don’t think its hardware related. Are you running any kind of FPS cap? It is puzzling me most of my game do this.

See what happens by enabling VSynch.

I have i73930K oc’d to 4.4GHz, TitanX (series 900) with modest overclocks, 16Gb 1600 MHz RAM, Win10, 2560X1440 27" monitor.

Running on ultra settings, game was very jittery with vsynch off, turned on it is smooth as. Lowering settings did not make any difference.

Its the i5, probably at 100% usage. Until dice optimises better for i5s this is gonna be an issue, I had the same problem on battlefield 4 launch now after all the patches my 2500k breezes through it at 100fps.

So either wait for patch or get moar cores. We’re actually getting something new next month with Zen so may be the best time to upgrade.

Hey, I was getting stuttering constantly. However, I found out a program was interfering with my game. Try running the game in windowed mode, open task manager and set it to “always on top,” then play the game behind it. When the stuttering occurs, look at the task manager to see what programs are taking up CPU time. This might help you hunt down any programs that are interfering with the game.

My Specs if you were wondering:  
CPU: Intel Core i7 5930K - Water cooling  
MB: ROG Asus Rampage V Extreme  
RAM: HyperX 32 GB DDR4 2400MHz  
GPU: 2x GTX 780 Ti Sli  
SSD: Samsung Evo 850 1TB  
1300W PSU

I took the windows 10 upgrade and kept DX11 on, and it got alot better. You can upgrade to WIN10 by using the disability download option.

I went from Win7 to 10 and noticed a lot better performance. I was a little skeptical about 10, but it’s actually quite nice.
