Is it normal that with: i5-6500 GTX 770 4GB 8GB DDR4 BF1 runs on 40 FPS with all settings set to low? Vsync - OFF, FPS max set to 200, dx12 disabled, resolution scale set to 100%. ---

the problem does not lie in the configuration of your PC, the problem lies in the EA servers. the code of the game has been updated many times but the result of many players remains the same, the real problem is that the servers can not manage the frame rate of the game, the server on each map is stressed between effects of smoke, destruction, explosions and so on, so we just have to hope that EA / DICE can give us servers with better performance than these, patience .. ---

Something got changed and messed up fps in the last patch. Seeing dips to 60s which I never had before. Back to BF4… ---

I don’t know what it’s like on windows 10 or a cpu with lots of threads but I did some messing around with the process priority on windows 7 and normal is by far the best. setting it higher was basically unplayable. using a 3570k. ---
