At what resolution? 1080p? If 1080p you have a serious CPU bottleneck in BF1 causing big fps variances
1440p but that still wouldn't explain why it was smoother with a worse gpu
It does explain it. One of the worst things for smooth game play is big FPS variances. Before you probably had a fairly constant fps albeit much lower but now I bet its jumping up and down as the CPU load varies. Monitor your CPU usage while gaming
