Sometimes when I play BF3 I have stuttering, I have good FPS (according to Fraps), but the game feels like there are many missing Frames, which makes it harder to play and it isnt realy enjoyable, sometimes I dont have this problem, but sometimes do I have this problem even after a few restarts, I also cant change drivers, because the newer ones are making older games lag, and older drivers wont let me play Battlefield 4. Does someone know how to fix this?

System Specs?

its not the system, when it sometimes works just fine, the system specs are on my profile

If it's "not the system" then it's just BF3 being BF3, maybe lag from internet. If you are using wireless, joining high-ping servers, have bad internet, you will have a bad time. 

 

Or, it could actually be your system.

 

It's a laptop, which laptops throttle very easily as they get hot very easily. They also will run differently based on the power settings. "full performance" mode is sometimes different if it's not plugged in. Also, a GT 750M is not a very powerful card, and the i7 is a mobile version of an I7, also not very powerful when compared to any desktop system. And, not to knock your system, but ACER does not make the best stuff (I am only speaking from experience tearing apart dozens of acers that have died where I used to work).

So, because of that (That being, the fact it's not a high performance gaming desktop) it could be the maps, it could be the number of players (more players = more load on CPU, also does affect graphics performance a bit). A map with more fire and particles are very GPU intensive as well.

 

So, I would make sure you have it on a flat surface, maybe with a cooling pad, running at the Full power/high performance mode while plugged in. See if there are any constants (every time you play this or that map performance gets jittery). Also make sure you are using ethernet, not wireless (try disabling wireless even if your having issues). Do a speed test when having issues to see if you have a high ping because your internet is fluctuating. If you are joining a server with higher than around 100 ping, it's going to be a bit laggy and jittery.
