Voted , I notice the Throttling while playing bf4 , fps falls right away when reached 67c

What is an Ideastorm? I have no idea what you are talking about. If your getting throttled due to thermals, set your Nvidia Inspector to P:5 state, and adjust your clocks as needed. I am playing Bf4 Beta, with clocks over 1000 and turbo enabled on cpu with zero throttle on the m14xr2 and my Bf4 beta settings vanilla medium (no adjustments) 1366x768 get an avg of 47fps (range from 42-52 fps) during match. I can only assume this will go up during official launch.
Good Luck -

What driver you use and what bios are you running? -
System:
M14xr2
I7-3610qm
Nvidia 650mGT 2gb ram
120 SSD intel 3
8 GB ram @1600 with heatsyncs
1366x768
repasted with ICdiamon24
I played on various 64 player servers in Chicago, LA and Dallas. The first thing i noticed in game was the constant haze which is annoying, but that aside lets go to beta performance.
Game Settings: Vanilla Medium (meaning medium with zero changes)
System Settings: Turbo enabled, Video clocks at 1010 gpu/2000 mem. (Inspector set to P:5)
Bios A13 (Dell)
Fan (HWinfo set to max)
Temps GPU 60-62 max
CPU 82-84c max
Nvidia Driver 331:40 beta
Windows 8 pro
FPS 64 player maps (full)
Avg 47
Range 42-52fps most of the time. Very playable
Still haven't decided if im going to purchase it or wait for Ghost. I miss the fully destructible environments of BFBC2 and keep feeling BF is moving in the wrong direction.
Good Luck!
Remember to update Punkbuster and then manually ADD bf4 as an installed game within Punkbuster Tool.
Side Note: For grins I change the settings to Custom and changed all the settings to ultra except AA, Ambient Oc and Post FX (set these to low or off) Still managed to stay at 40fps avg. I think the hit registration took a toll here and I certainly wouldn't play MP maps with Ultra as Hit detection is priority over looks. It dived into the 30s a lot -
