Apex Legends stuck at 10 fps no matter what

I was playing Apex Legends smoothly then all of the sudden it dropped to 10 fps during a match. Then I'm stuck at 10 fps no matter what I do to fix it. I've already tried;

  • Restarting my laptop
  • Re verified the game integrity cache
  • Reinstalling Apex Legends
  • Updated my graphic drivers
  • Literally opened my laptop to clean the fans
  • Disabled all third-party services and startups
  • Cleared up my hard disk storage

Sometimes it'll run again smoothly at 60 fps but will drop down to 10 fps after a while. I am deeply saddened by this, Apex is my Life.

Laptop specs;

  • AMD Ryzen 7 @ 2.90 GHz
  • 16 GB RAM
  • Windows 11, 64-bit
  • NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1650 Ti
  • 4GB VRAM
  • 512GB SSD

Please help me

  • @lqmkeem could you verify if you have overclocked your pc, and / or if the pc is overheating?
    Could you verify the PC temp while playing the games?

    Also, sometimes underclocking could help
  • Hi @EzyHawk , thank you for your response.

    • I have not overclocked my laptop as far as I have used it to play games before (Wolfenstein 2, Valorant) and it has runned smoothly without any fps drops.
    • Apex Legends is still stuck at 10 fps with proper cooling fans (Used external cooling fans)
    • The PC temperature for my GPU is at 65°C while running Apex Legends. (47-54°C when idle)

    Hope this helps. I'll try to look into overclocking but I doubt it to be the issue since I've been playing fine before with no issues.
