I have no crashes but crazy fps drop in every games. It goes often around 15-20 fps and bcome impossible to play during fights.
As for you.. other games are working perfectly as usual. It's clearly an Apex problem.
My config if it can help:
i3-4130 CPU @ 3.40GHz
16Go Ram
GeForce RTX 3060 12Go
game installed on a SSD.
Windows 10.

Last information : I had none of these problems before the Quads update.
P.S :
I forgot to share an impression I have.. that could be totally wrong : Since this famous patch I've had the impression that the game relies a lot more on the CPU... and a lot less on the GPU than before (Which seems rather strange when the evolution of games is going in the opposite direction).
As I have a fairly old CPU, this could explain the drop in fps.
But then... I'm not a technician, so it's just a feeling.
PS 2 :
I forgot to add a comment that could go along with the idea of the game running much more on the CPU and less on the GPU since the Quads games update.
Someone in this topic : https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Game-freezes-after-new-mid-season-update-Lobby/td-p/13829222
pointed out that before he always had long shaders compilation at the launch of Apex each time there was a new nvidia driver...
and that now, it don't do that anymore. Shaders compilation is always "fast". no difference after a new driver.
I noticed the exact same difference on my computer.
I'm not a technician... but Isn't "shaders compilation" an operation that relieves the computer of a whole bunch of calculations so it doesn't have to do it after... in full middle of the game?
if the game no longer does it (or does it much less well) since this update... That could explain the huge fps drop some of us have now.?
just a thought.
