What you need is RTSS. Use scanline sync, disable all gsync/vsync stuff, dont cap frames.
Look at this:

Amd gpu doesn't like rtss. Scanline sync is really strange in this game. Capping frame rate not correctly. If I play with 120hz, capping 120fps auto buuut, I'm getting worse fps drop than radeon chill. My fps is going down to " 60" with high-end gpu at low settings. And when my fps below 120, getting stutters hard. I don't have kind of weird fps drops with freesync. But this game is not optimized. I tried everything even with nvidia gpu. No way dude.. You can't play this game smooth stable. I'm sure and read discussions about Rtss! It's not good option for amd gpu and for this game. I have not any problems with another games. Apex legends is just broken. Even g-sync and freesync technology can't handle this game. It's because of ea games. You can see a lot of new topics about dat on reddit. Btw Amd is also broken too. That's another question.
No, that's not correct. I have a Vega56 and a 5700xt in separate systems (2070s as well) that run with rtss without any problems and super smooth. If you have a Gsync/Freesync screen go with cap in RTSS, if you don't have Gsync/Freesnyc go with Scanlinesync.

Yeah about scanline sync, I love it. Titanfall 2, which is probably the same if not a very similar engine, doesn't like when I use the scansync option. Well it does, but if I set the scanline sync setting in RTSS to anything but 0, the game fps is capped at 60 regardless if I set a framerate limit in RTSS. The tear line does move up towards the top of the screen but it still visible, but the game feels smooth. I want to run the game at 120fps because the mouse response is much better than at 60fps.
Yeah but all of this stuff with Gsync, RTSS, Scanline sync adds input lag.. And also for Scanline sync to work 100% you need really powerfull graphics card to maintain those frames for example 144fps and you need always be below 60-70% usage otherwise it will tear. Idk other Source games runs perfectly even at higher fps 500-700fps without cap and the screen tear isnt even noticeable but Apex its different storry... Maybe when apex will move to Steam something will change but now its laggy and not very well optimized.
