High GPU usage in Menu
Hello everyone , could not get results anywhere else so chose to post here. I just returned to Apex this past week but I have been facing an issue. I have tried using every setting but no results. ...

Try turning off "dynamic spot shadows"
Was the final fix for me at least. Fixed the excessive gpu/cpu load for both ingame and in the menu. To my untrained eye apex executable seems to draw about the same in the menus with "dynamic spot shadows" on as battlefield 5 does with rtx on in the asianstyle maps. We are talking maxed tdp of 300w.
With this "feature" turned off the gpu slows down from 2450mhz at full blast to an easy 1200 ish mhz and a load of 60.80% with the mhz fluxions 200-300 depending on the load. Now that is an incredible drop in power consumption paired with an insane boost in fps. If left uncapped apex will rest at 300 fps constant. with a powerdraw of 190-225w.
So some1 at respawn botched the dss settings for sure. Side by side comparison screenshots are indistinguishable from each other so i don't see the gain here.
