With the presets with Nvidia Experience I can run the game at over 60 fps 99% of the time. In multiplayer... In campagin I drop into the 30s and some times into the 20s!
Heres my specs...

GTX 670
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770
16 GB of ram
1920x1080
Any suggestions?
 
I would have expected just the opposite between Campaign and Multiplayer. What settings does NE have you running? Stuttering sometimes happens, but it should be minimal. That game is the new version of "but can your PC play Crysis". Have a look at Koroush Ghazi's Tweak Guide for Crysis 3 and see if there's anything you aren't doing.

At 1920x1080, your specs should be able to play at Very High with a few items backed off a bit. One of those is Anti-Aliasing (AA). FXAA is the least demanding but is a tad blurry. Check out page 6 for that.
 

16x AF
1x SMAA Low (Only 1-5 fps boost with FXAA)
Everything else at Very High apart from Shading and Shadows.

 
AF is very minimal drag. 1x SMAA is what I use. Are you at 1920x1080?

Maybe your system is busy doing crap in the background. Check System Configuration and see how many boxes are checked. Another thing would be to run CCleaner to rid your system of registry errors and resourse wasting crap. Run the Clean and Ragistry portions both until it comes back clean.

If Nvidia Experience has your settings all at Very High except for Shading and Shadows (Medium?), that seems a bit high for a single GTX 670. Nvidia Experience has my settings the same way and I have 2 x o/c GTX 660s.
 

I rarely drops to 50 fps in multiplayer. But no they are at high :)
 
Check your GPU temp. The logic being multiplayer is CPU intensive maybe stopping the GPU running at full load while single is not CPU intensive at all maybe letting the GPU run at 100% for extended periods.
 

With the exact same settings I can play Crysis 2 without this happening.

 


Then I would say NE messed up and you should use the MP settings.
 

I mean those to settings are at high. i use same settings in multiplayers
 


I run everything at VH apart from those two settings and multiplayer gets a minmum of 50 fps
 

No overheating issues here. @80c cuz its a alienware x51 but anything over 85c shouldnt do any harm
 

Im talking about GPU usage. My CPU usage is around 40-60

 


Oh, sorry. Yep, the GPU is struggling. Any issues in other demanding games?
 

Nope everything runs smooth. Even BF3 along with Crysis 2 and 3
 
"Nope everything runs smooth. Even BF3 along with Crysis 2 and 3"


OK... Now Crysis 3 is running smooth? Or were you just referring to the MP mode running smooth. I'm getting confused. And at what settings does SP begin to 'lag'? (I presume you mean frame stutter by 'lag'.)
 

Didnt mean to put 3. Just meant to make that crysis. But the settings all at VH but Shaders and shadows and those are at high work just fine In multiplayer. In campagin I get the lag. And in campagin I just mean shit fps.
