When i am playing on BF4.exe normal 32bit mode i got very smooth fps on Medium gameplay.

When i am play 64bit then even on low details i have 2-5 fps on start game. What now ? I am using 327.23WHQL. Install the newest one or maybe change to other windows? I have Windows 7 x64 Ultimate. For some reason game is just unplayable ( 3 fps?! ) on 64mode BF.exe.

Also i installed patch 1. Help


CPU: I7 3770K 3.5, Msi Gtx 770 Lightning ,2x4gb Corsair Vengeance.

Windows 7 x64 Ultimate.

It might be because you're using such old drivers. Download the 331.65 WHQL drivers and try those, then report back.

I will install the newest ones and report:). But why on 327 WHQL i get 5 fps even on low settings? Can somebody check on 327 ?


EDIT:
Installed the newest WHQL 331.65 and now get 60 FPS ON ULTRA on 64bit mode:)))! So that was the drivers:) lol

It's probably nothingmore than the drivers aren't optimized for Bf4. This is nothing new, some games just don't play well with older drivers.

If it runs well in 32bit version, then keep using that, people have been reporting issues with the 64bit version.

Updating drivers is very important in a gaming rig. I'm surprised you didn't already know about it, but now don't forget it. Nvidia fairly recently released the "geforce experience" which so far has done a good job of notifying me when new drivers are released. You might find it useful too.

Yep, gotta update those drivers every time a new A-lister game is released.
