I'm not sure if this has been posted before but I see alot of people are having frustrations with DX11 and low FPS so I thought I'd go ahead and post my findings with playing with the DragonAge.ini
Under the in game settings it will not allow you to enable Advanced Blur and the Depth of Field while using only High graphic settings. I'm not sure why this is though, because when I force both of these items on in the ini file, they work perfectly fine for me with High settings. Not only do they work, but I do not suffer any FPS loss what so ever (GTX 570, 45 - 60 fps, 4x AA, 16xAF, Vsync, 1920x1080). According to bioware these are DX11 features, so I'm not sure if those with DX10 cards will be able to use this or not. This further supports the fact that in Very High settings the major FPS problem/hit is likely coming from the tessellation effects.
In order to try this for yourself, open your DragonAge.ini and change the following lines. You must then set the ini file to READ ONLY or they will not always seems to stick.
EnableHighQualityBlur=1
EnableDiffusionDOF=1
I think bioware needs to expand the graphic settings in game to turn off tessellation effects... I'm not sure why they force you to use very demanding effects such as tesselation just to be able to use these other effects. Seems silly to me! Hope this helps a few people get a bit more graphical enjoyment from the game until they sort the mess out with DX11.

Well I can try... hope this image takes and doesn't break any forum rules 
Here's an image clearly showing the DoF. I downsized the image as I wasn't sure how large images are allowed on these forums, sorry if it's not clear enough but the changes are easy enough for you to test in game yourself.

This is a great tweak... tesselation is nice (particularly in some environments) but when you are actually playing the game you hardly notice it.
Good catch!
