I'm getting a lot of CPU spikes whenever there's explosions or a lot of action going on. I only drop a few frames but they're typically at the most crucial times right before I get a kill or die. (Extremely frustrating).

I'm running 8 gigs of ram, i7-6700, nvidia 1060, 250gig SSD, etc. I don't have any quality issues or CPU spikes with any other game. I tried researching and I see this happens to quite a few people. I've tried turning off dx12 and tried toggling FFR on/off with no difference. I uninstalled and reinstalled my video drivers and I have the latest windows update. Any help would be appreciated!

Appreciate the response. I bought additional RAM, went from 8 to 16 and that solved the problem.

Hey, @Re1gnnLL  make sure that all drivers for windows and your gpu drivers are up to date. 

You can also try to do a clean boot to see if there any programs messing with Battlefield V and turn off any overlay programs for example Discord or Nvidia experience.

Let me know if this works or not for you.
