Apex Legends makes my whole PC stutter

Every single time I launch Apex Legends it makes my PC stutter. The game itself stutters, the sound stutters, cursor starts jumping from place to place even if I slightly move my mouse, friends on Discord say that my voice stutters and even case fan lighting animation stutters. The only way to fix that is to wait on the Firing Range. Sometimes it takes less than a minute, sometimes 5-7 minutes. During that time my PC is literally unusable.
I play the game on the lowest settings and my PC fits recommended system requirements. I tried checking CPU and GPU usage in-game with FPSMonitor. For CPU it's 20-25% on average and for GPU it's 75-80%. The game is installed on SATA SSD, my Internet connection is stable at the speed of 300 Mbps, the packet loss on Frankfurt 2 Data Center is 0 and ping is 40-45 ms.
I've been stuck with this problem for several seasons and managed to find only one thread with the same issue, however, author said that the problem was fixed after some update. He was also asked to attach DxDiag, so that's what I'm going to do as well. I will attach more information if needed.

    I used to have this issue. There was an issue with ICUE Corsair Software update. My only fix then was to off ICUE while playing Apex Legend. You can try shutting down all other application while playing apex legend and test if the stutter persist.

  • @RuixSG2 I started using iCUE 2 month ago, however, disabling it and other applications doesn't help :c
