Single Player, BF3, sig-rig, screenshot is from AB during opening sequence of the first Tank level (you're apparently some dude named Miller). Game is maxed at 1920x1200 at 4xMSAA but no FXAA.
Notice how my GPU usage is never capped, yet my FPS keeps constantly dropping into the 50's. It's not just this level either, happened in the previous levels as well.
My CPU usage is between 25-35% (I have HT on so this would probably be 50-70% in a 4-core/thread config) and there is no correlation between the occasional high CPU usage spikes and the constant FPS dips on the AB graph.
This same thing happens whether the card is OC'd or not. As you can see the core clock is staying at max clocks so it's not a downclocking issue.
Obviously I have v-sync turned on (regular v-sync + triple buffering, OR adaptive v-sync ... same outcome). Doing v-sync through nVCP, it's turned off in the game settings (cause it doesn't work ... just like it seems to almost never work ... but that's for another thread).
I'm really just playing this game for the first time, dunno much about trouble-shooting it nor how it ran on my old cards.
Does this only happen to me? Mostly it's not too noticeable but sometimes it'll go into the 40's which I definitely feel as a small stutter.
