I am sure BF4 has 2 .exe's. 1 simply BF4.exe and BF4x64.exe
Maybe try which ever 1 you didn't try.
Come to think of it, it might be x86. But the same applies, try both.
^ Correct make sure you use the correct one. If you're using Mantle i don't know if it will work or not. If it does not use the in game command GameTime.MaxVariableFps and put it as 59.4. You can place this in your user.cfg file.
Yeah I tried both cheers ... Ah yeah it could have been because of mantle never thought of that, as it doesn't even register fps in afterburner when using mantle does it ? I'll give the cfg a try tonight ! The input lag isn't too bad as it is but it's still there and noticeable so would like to reduce it as much as possible

Might want to set this in the user.cfg as well. RenderDevice.TripleBufferingEnable 0
If it's laggy with that disabled then change it to a 1.
Aye.
Top tip Matt it worked cheers
Glad to hear it.
It will make no difference as you're using Mantle/D3D. Leave it disabled though.
Cheers ... You seem to know everything about crossfire issues
I've been using it for many years. This tearing/input lag fix was a trick i learned playing Battlefield 3 and i still use it when i play Battlefield 4. (assuming im not recording game footage to upload)
Yes. It works better with some than others though. Sometimes you need to disable triple buffering to get the best effect, but sometimes games don't like you doing that, or won't let you. I typically only use it on twitch fps shooters as other types of games i don't notice input lag.
If they don't have the command, you can't do it. It's not always essential.
Ah I see .. Thanks for the help .. I just realised last night I can enable windows mode in games that have v sync problems and tearing , just aslong as I don't need crossfire , which is ideal for cs go ! I cap the fps at 120 anyway
Correct. Borderless/Window mode has no tearing, so no need for vsync. Not sure if Vsync even works in that mode. If the game uses Mantle then crossfire works in Borderless/Window mode. Just been telling that to some other fella in the other thread.
