You meant something specific, but I need more clarity. The issue you described happened during testing—running it for a couple to three weeks in 32-bit and not seeing any difference compared to later switching to 64-bit. The CPU usage remained the same, but the workload shifted from being heavily dependent on a single core to being spread across all cores.
4gigs seems to be near the maximum. BF4 suggests 6gigs. You might want to boost the pagefile and lower graphics and resolution a bit to help it run better.
