Does anyone else get really bad stuttering while playing on every server? I need to find a fix for this. I know its not lag or FPS related. I play on servers that give me a ping under 40 and im getting over 130 fps ---

I’m still getting stutter too, even after the latest BF4 patch AND the NVIDIA driver update yesterday. This is getting to be ridiculous. ---

Yea. Running a gtx 760, amd fx8320 and 8gb ram. I’ve tried everything from changing cpu usage to unparking cores. No idea what the problem could be. ---

I’m also on a 760, FX6300 and 16GB RAM. I’m beginning to think that we just need to wait for a patch. I did find this, though, confirming the suspicion that it’s caused by CPU spikes: [http://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield4/comments/1pmoyn/anyone\_else\_have\_this\_issue\_with\_low\_framerate/](http://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield4/comments/1pmoyn/anyone_else_have_this_issue_with_low_framerate/) ---

I had really bad stuttering until I installed win8. I’m not a fan of win8 but my game runs smooth as butter now! ---

I put it down to the fact my gfx card is 1gb, and the stuttering occurs when new textures are loaded from my crappy mechanical hardrive. ---

I’m on a 760, 8gb of ram, and a much slower (I believe) a8-3870k and I have no problems. It’s probably a combination of ram speed and (primarily) hard drive speed when loading textures. ---

I believe its an optimization issue with amd cpus. Ive been running the perfoverlay graph and it shows cpu spikes during stutter, even though this cpu is more than capable of handling the game.
