Hi guys I just installed my new GIGABYTE R9 270X and it didnt perform as good as I've seen, I saw a JayzTwoCents video of this card and he was getting almost 100fps on Battlefield 4 at high settings 1080p, I played Battlefield 4 at 1600x900 on ultra and I got several dips on the framerate, to my knowledge this should be happening. What can you guys tell me? How can I "fix" this.

 

My specs:

CPU: AMD FX 4350 4.2GHZ

GPU: GIGABYTE R9 270OC Version 2GB

PSU: Rosewill Hive series 550W 80+ Bronze

Motherboard: MSI 760GMA P34(FX)

RAM: Gskill 8 GB 1600

According to this:

Your CPU shouldn't be bottlenecking you. I would test the card in another person's rig. There might be a driver issue or an issue itself with the card.
