There are some great console commands in Battlefield 4, such as the FPS display and frame rate limiter. But it can be a pain to type them in every time you load the game.

Limiting the frame rate in BF4 is something I recommend for everyone with a higher-end system. If your PC is producing a higher frame rate than your monitor can display, you’re just adding heat, fan noise, and drawing more electricity with no benefit.
