Try reducing the in-game graphics quality settings and/or playing at a lower resolution.

Thanks.

    Hello, I already have all my settings at the lowest even though thats what I always have them at. I am pretty sure it has nothing to do with lowering the resolution because I have been fine playing 1920x1080 since the game came out. Not sure why the usage instantly spikes to around 95-100 even in the lobby, in game or the firing range.

    Any other games I play do not have my GPU usage spiking up to 100% for basically anything I am doing when in Apex. Is there any possible way for me to find out the specifics of why Apex is running like this all the time? Could it be the nvidia drivers?
