Low FPS in BF1 usually means performance issues.

It's listed in his profile. Greetings! I suspect you're experiencing a CPU limitation, how is your CPU performance in the game while playing BF1?
Based on your specifications, you should see a significant boost in FPS, even with your existing CPU. Your motherboard lacks the capability to overclock FX-8 core CPUs effectively, and your current 4,4GHz overclock is pushing it. It’s possible your CPU is throttling in games due to VRM limitations—use HWinfo to check. I’m not sure, but I managed to run an FX-8350 at 4.5GHz with an R9 290X (similar power levels), and I didn’t notice any CPU bottleneck (GPU stayed at 99% in all tests). Moreover, Gamersnexus ran an FX-8370 at 4.0GHz and achieved around 90 FPS at Ultra settings, which suggests something is likely off with your current configuration. My initial thought remains the same.
It will definitely mirror that performance as in BF1. The player who uses an i5-4690K with a GTX 1060 is already seeing bottlenecks, even dropping to 60% GPU usage. Another user’s i7-870 with an RX 580 is struggling at high settings, suggesting the hardware isn’t up to the task. It could be more than just CPU temperatures—overheating VRM on the motherboard might be limiting performance.
