GPU usage spikes during gameplay then leading to performance drops
Please enter this overlay.drawgraph 1 command in the console for BF4. I'm a bit puzzled by your description, but it would be useful to check if CPU spikes or unusual activity appear during stuttering. This could be helpful. I experienced some odd CPU spikes once and it helped me disable core parking. Interestingly, this isn't a problem anymore for me.
It depends on the method you're using; some systems save data to a file while others require capturing a screenshot.
Take a look at the images. You’ll notice the charts showing clear patterns. Trust me, any unusual activity in your CPU will stand out. For me, the peaks rose nearly all the way to the top. Typically both graphs move smoothly up and down only slightly, staying close unless you’re on a loading screen.
Please share your system details so I can identify your CPU and motherboard.
I actually looked for problems with your card using mantle, looks like the 7850 suffers from a memory leak with the Mantle api. Seems like you are stuck with DX11. I mean we can still try to work something out here and I would love to see it work, but it looks like this is a common problem with the card.Sorry.
Impressive CPU performance! Your motherboard seems capable of handling it. Probably not the main issue... ^The likely solution is reverting to DX11 and adjusting the settings slightly... I'm curious if a patch will be available to address this problem?
I purchased uit since my FX6200 caused significant bottlenecks, and for its price it performed much better than Intel. I’m hoping it will last until I upgrade to DDR4 in a couple of years. I need to spend on a new GPU around Black Friday, and I don’t think I’m patient enough to wait for the AMD 300 series next year.
