Enough is enough - AMD users SUFFERING from performance

I don't know how many times I have to write a new topic, to finally get an answer.. But I got totally fed up this time.

Dear developers, why can't you never give me an answer? Every AMD user I know, are suffering from the same problem: FPS drops in the game! World's Edge was awful, especially in the center of the map, getting below 90 fps all the time in certain points of the map, but Kings Canyon started doing the same. 

Specs:
Motherboard: ASUS ROG STRIX B450-F Gaming
Ram: G.Skill DDR4 3200 16GB TridentZ CL16 KIT (2x8GB)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X BOX (AM4) (with a bequiet! Dark Rock 4 cooler on it)
GPU: Sapphire 5700 XT Nitro+ SE 8GB
PSU: Seasonic Focus 650 Gold Semi-modular
SSD: ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro 256GB
HDD: 1 TB WD

MORE THAN ENOUGH for low settings competitive to get 144 FPS. Don't tell me it isn't, because the card is slightly better (in some games)  than the 2070 super, and with that card everyone's having a rock solid 144fps on low settings. I'm playing in 1080p, card usage is below 80%, it's only 99% in the menu, (pathetic) and it's been almost 7 Seasons. The game's performance gets WORSE and WORSE every patch. Why can't you focus more on AMD cards' optimization? I can't believe I have no FPS difference between Max and Low settings... How? Doesn't matter what settings I'm on, I have fps drops below 100 on some parts of the map. Even Warzone runs better, which game is a total mess. Every other game works fine. I've spent more than 300$ on Apex (yes, I'm a *, I hoped everytime it gets better) I would really like to have at least a game I can play without any performance issues in exchange. Thank you.

(yes, I have RTTS, I've tried every thirdparty program to get more fps, did a clean install, checked the PSU cables, repaired the game, all that kind of stuff, nothing works)

  • I'm having the same problem.

    (I will use a translator.. because my English is not good..)

    I tested all versions of the radeon adrenalin drivers and Window10 1905 and 2004.

    There was this problem before season 6, but it wasn't so serious.

    Before S6, using adrenalin 2.2 and 7.1 has solved the problem.

    And even if I used a driver with a problem, the frame would drops to 90-100.

    But now the frame drops to 70-80.

    Particularly serious frame drops happen when looking south from the fragment north side,  and near the train station in skyhook.

    And in Kings Canyon, the frame drops to 90 in some places.

    GPU: Sapphire 5700 XT PULSE

    I've posted many times about this problem, but I never got an answer.. Why does it take to optimize more, than in the beginning, when it was perfect.. can't believe

    can confirm my rx 580 runs other games perfectly but apex makes my mouse feel laggy delayed and i get like unplayable game on capital city and other locations

    fps 90-100+ 

    Never drops below 90 but still there are some big issues with amd

  • YES, same issue with my 480. Either high or low settings gives me the same mouse jerkyness.

    Apex is the only game that feels like this, it feels like a locked 60fps with high frames.

    My buddy can get over 200fps and says he has the same issue, and said the game's optimization is has been bad since release.

    Could you try to reset graphics settings.

    Close Apex, add +fps_max unlimited to the Startup Parameters in Orgin.

    Set AMD Chill Max and Min to the same FPS well below your Monitor HZ (like 128 for a 144Hz Monitor)

    Vsync controlled by Application

    Launch Apex, set your Apex Video Settings.

    Try tripple Buffer VSYNC

    6GB VRAM (NOT 8 für the 5700! so one Step below what you would expect)

    (I have the Rest pretty much on low or off with the exception off Bullet Marks, Ragdoll med., A. Filtering 16x)

    I have again smooth Frametimes - no stutter - with locked fps after lauch drop.

    I still believe it was smoother before a Season 6 patch.

    Recheck your Texture Setting -  mine reset ist to low for several times - if that happened it set it back to 6gb even in game.

    Some how that helped against stuttering - low setting is / was awfull!
