[APEX LEGENDS] FPS DROPS, SCREEN TEARING and INPUT LAG!!!

SPECS:

CPU: i7 8700k

GPU: Asus Rog Strix GTX 1080TI

MB: Gigabyte Z370 HD3

PSU: 750w +90gold

RAM: 16gb 3000Mhz

SSD: 1x120gb(OS), 2x240gb

HDD: 2TB 

Hello! So the problem is that when i play World Edge map especially in buildings i get fps drops from 144fps to 110-110 and also 90 fps when this happens i get screen tearing and huge input lag my mouse becomes very floaty like sliding on ice and i cannot aim its IMPOSSIBLE!!! Even when there is stable 144fps in buildings i get this floaty mouse feeling and screen tearing. I play this game only with -fullscreen and -freq 144 launch commands because the game is already capped at 144hz and when i uncap it gets even worse the screen tearing is kicking in..

Ive also tried using GSYNC + Vsync +141 fps cap using riva tuner but i get even more input lag. I just want to play this game smoothly without screen tearing and input lag. Please Help!!!

    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.
