If you're planning to play BFV on i5 3470 then I suggest you to don't, Because at the moment game runs absolutely awful on this system. I don't know what the issue is, but I know the i5 3470 is a bottleneck to gtx 1060 and since the battlefield is a CPU based game, the 4cpu processor isn't enough to play this game. The gameplay video I'm showing you is the frontline mode with 32players, Yes! it runs the game fine with 32 or less players game modes with the gpu usage of 90+ on ultra setting but if you lower the setting the performance will get terrible because the gpu usage goes down to 40% to 50%, Which cause the huge performance issues and you will get massive fps drops, same goes for the 64p conquest mode, I tried the low, medium and every possible setting but the GPU usage remain the same at 40 to 50 percent. Maybe there is something wrong with the game at the moment, or it's a processor issue. I'm waiting for the next December patch (update) to see if there's a fix. Because I've seen others having the same issue on much better rigs like i7 6700k with GTX 1070. It could be a game fault but I'm not sure at the moment.
I had no performance issues in battlefield 1 and I heard that the BFV is made on a same engine as BF1. So i've no idea what is actually wrong with this game.
You can also check my Battlefield 1 videos on my channel.
So, If you've i5 3470 with gtx 1060 and want to play 32player game modes then go ahead buy Battlefield V but I suggest you to upgrade your processor to i7 4790 or at least i7 3770 and then maybe the game will run fine. Because the i5 3470 is below than the minimum system requirements of BFV but GTX 1060 is in the recommended system requirements. GPU is fine but the CPU is not. I thought I would be able to play on medium or low setting but nope.
My question is, If the 32 players game modes can run great on ultra setting, then why not the 64 players game modes on low setting?
So, I'm waiting for a fix from EA/ Dice in the next patch to address this performance issue or I'm upgrading my processor anyway.
Note: The single player runs perfectly fine on ultra preset.
Thanks for watching this video and If you've the same performance issues or you've found the fix, let me know in the comments.
