Apex Crash - Overclocked/Overheated?
---------------------------
Apex crashed in a way usually caused by a CPU that is overclocked or overheating.
Specifically, the CPU reported that it couldn't execute an instruction it didn't want to execute. More precisely, the CPU's memory controller said it didn't have permission to execute one address, but the CPU's registers said it wanted to execute a different address.
More technical information should be available in "apex_crash.txt" in your Documents folder.

Got the same message. Temperatures were perfectly fine and this happened after I downclocked my 100% stable overclock by 100mhz.

If you are able to and know your system bios,set the AVX offset to 1 or 2 regardless of overclock to see if the R5Apex crash stops. Please report back if the issue seems resolved after that. !!Do not tinker with BIOS if you're not comfortable with it!!/Atic
This is not a fix, this is a cheap workaround. Apex is using AVX instructions almost 100% of the time so it basically means you have to run your CPU 100-200mhz lower the whole time after you set the AVX offset to 1 or 2. The problem are obviously not the cpu overclocks, but the poorly implemented AVX instructions in the game.
That fix is bull****

Sometimes I think my PC does the same

5GHZ OC - Tried with AVX offset 1-2. Both causes crashes and bluescreen. Tried ramping voltages up by 0.04 and still same thing happens. Tried with only boos which is 4.7ghz and still crashes.

A bit better workaround then turning off half of CPU cores:
- 6 years ago
Setting the affinity to 4 threads did not work for me. Took a little longer to freeze, but eventually it happened on my 4th game about 30-45 min. I verified that only 4 cores were working by using Speed Fan. This showed that I had all 8 cores available, but only 4 of them were doing any work.
Only fix for me on an i7-9700k is to disable 4 cores in the bios.
