Thanks for getting back, @HandsomeJeka

Can you let me know if these following steps have any improvement for you? I just posted this recently and looking to get some feedback on these steps.

Cap FPS to 60 or 70 (Put "+fps_max 60" in the advanced option in the game properties inside the origin launcher)
Disable full screen optimization

Right-click the Apex Legends icon.
Click on Properties.
Click on the Compatibility tab.
Check “Disable Full Screen Optimizations”
Click OK.

Lower Monitor Refresh Rate to 60

Open Settings.
Click on System.
Click on Display.
Click the Display adapter properties link at the bottom
Click the Monitor tab.

Set Easy Anti-Cheat Priority to Low

When you launch the game ALT-TAB out.
CTRL-ALT-DELETE so you pull up Task Manager
Go to the Details tab
Find Easy Anti-Cheat>Right-Click and set priority to low

Lower Texture Streaming Budget from the in-game settings to Low or NONE
Lower Ambient Occlusion
Disable Anti-Aliasing
Disable Volumetric Lighting
Lower Spot Shadow Detail

Even if the first two steps would work, I would not play the game on 60fps on 60hz when I own +1000€ monitor. After putting the Easy Anti-Cheat priority to low, I have not crashed ones BUT I also read from the forums that one guy was only crashing after alt tabing so I have not alt tabed from the game either so that could be the fix for this on my part. For the graphic settings, I have everything on low or turned off except for the Anti-Aliasing.
