Nvidia 335.23 driver lowered BF4 FPS

[nosedevil]

Hey guys,

I've recently updated to the new NVidia 335.23 driver and it lowered my Battlefield 4 FPS. I was running everything smoothly at 70-80 FPS on 5760 x 1080 resolution before the update. Now it has dropped to 15-20 FPS and has become unplayable. Any suggestions what might it be?
My setup is the following:

CPU: Intel Core i7 2600K stock
GPU: 2x GTX 670 SLI
RAM: 16 GB
OS: Windows 8.1

It is the driver. If you update something and experience a negative result, roll back the update. Simple as that.

Rolled back to the 334.89, but still low FPS. Could it be the patch DICE released?

That's possible. DICE really had issues with BF4 agreeing with peoples systems. The lag and fps drops were a huge mess.

Also on the same driver and had a stable 45-70fps zone.

After the update I have experienced a significant drop in my FPS when entering the menu, customization page, going under water and sever dips when a vehicle is destroyed. So annoying.

Update to the latest 337.50 beta driver. It's a special performance driver that greatly increased performance across the board. Everyone should be using this driver.
