HD7xxx optimisations will be coming in the next driver 2-4 weeks from now.

Well, if HD7xxx/GCN1.0 optimizations are still not included... that's rather disappointing.

My findings.

More findings.

Vsync appears to be broken in BF4 only upon further testing. Just tried Unigine Valley and its working correctly in that. Nice.

cool. Did the previous drivers work fine for you or did this actually fixed the issue? maybe your i7 is helping a bit due to more threads

Previous drivers. Still didn't install these drivers.

Previous drivers. Still didn't install these drivers.

Then how come. I get massive spikes in FPS.

I tried

1. Running stock cpu clocks
2. Clean install drivers
3. Unparking cores
4. Using DDU to uninstall drivers and install new ones
5. Windows 8.1
6. turning off frame pacing
7. tried using the RenderDevice.RenderAheadLimit on "-1" "1" "2" "3"
8. checking DPC latency and everything looks fine
9. Using time resolution
10. HPET on and off

nothing seems to work and i think it's because you have i7. the more cores makes up for a faster cpu than mine due to extra 4 threads.

Anything else I can try?

Ah nvm, Dice already used DDU.

Dice, what massive spikes, you're talking about BF4? If it's spikes in BF4 it's normal, you have a 2500k. Unless you're running mantle there are no spikes that should be happening.

Does your game stutter? No? If so, then it's not the cards but your CPU.

Oh and did you update the directx files in the BF4 folder?
