Were you playing on a large server? What that CPU will experience lag leading to frame drops on anything larger than a 32 person server.

I belive that I was playing on a 48 person server, but I also tried 32 person to see if that would help. No change. If it helps at all I tried changing my setting ultra to high, but no change there as well.

Fixed it by changing from mantle to DirectX.
