Huge Frame Drops in BF4 with my GTX 770

[gui1102]

Hey guys! In the last days I've been having huge frame drops in Battlefield 4 with my GTX 770 (in the last few weeks it was running smoothly). I've already made a fresh install of my Windows 7, installed new and old drives and it still happens. I play with with everything in low, but the texture quality that is in medium, antialiasing deferred is in 2x MSAA and antialiasing post is in medium. I think it's only BF4, because I played Mirror's Edge in the best configs and Crysis 2 in "very high" configs and both were really smooth, with no frame drops. In MSI Afterburner, while playing BF4 there are huge drops in GPU usage, but it doesn't happen with Mirror's Edge and Crysis 2, so I think the problem is only with BF4

These are the GPU drops(where the arrow is pointing): http://postimg.org/image/nv48p8ev7/

I also recorded a video, just for you to see the drops: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sax_kpSXdAM

Here are my specs: (Nothing is OC)
Motherboard: Asus Z97-A
CPU: Intel I7-4790K 4.00Ghz (All the CPU cores are unparked)
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 770 (board manuf. - nvidia)
Memory: 16GB - 2x Corsair Vengeance 8GB
Power Supply: Corsair CX 750M - 750 Watt
2 TB HD
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

I hope someone can help me, I'll be glad for it!

Maaan, I bought a new CPU cooler, installed it and it's working well, CPU at 40, 50°C, but maaan when I open BF4 I still have the frame drops... What do I do now?

I looked at your video, I suggest you set everything to ultra and remove the 4x msaa.
Because you're getting 160 fps with your settings and unless you're using a 144 hz panel such high fps is useless..
You can also try using the Geforce experience recommended settings which might work better.

The Map that you are playing is operation locker and depending on the server significant drops are possible, the best way to reduce frame drops is to sell the 770 and buy a 970 however you still might get some drops on that map sometimes...
Getting windows 8.1 will also give you a boost...

Good luck!

Did you disable origin in game?
