Low fps on 5800x3D + 7900 XTX
I've been encountering some frustrating FPS issues while playing Apex Legends on my high-end gaming rig. My performance in other games and benchmarks are as expected, so it seems to be an issue with Apex Legends. I am playing on steam
My setup includes an AMD Ryzen 5800X3D processor paired with an AMD Radeon 7900 XTX. With such hardware, I expected to have buttery-smooth gameplay across the board. However, that hasn't been the case.
Here's the breakdown of my FPS issues:
In the Jump Ship: While in the jump ship, my FPS hovers around 60, which feels surprisingly low considering the specs of my rig.
On the Ground: Once I land and start moving around, my FPS improves but still fluctuates between 140 to 200 FPS.
In the Firing Range: Even in the controlled environment of the firing range, where one would typically expect optimal performance, I'm experiencing FPS issues. While shooting bots, my FPS ranges from 140 to 180, which is still lower than what I anticipated. Looking at a certain direction (the spawn) does make my FPS go to 300.
I've tried tweaking various in-game settings, updating drivers, and ensuring that my hardware isn't throttling due to overheating. However, none of these efforts seem to have made a significant difference.
At this point, I'm at a loss for what could be causing these FPS issues. Could it be a software optimization problem with Apex Legends itself, or is there something else I'm overlooking on my end?
If anyone has encountered similar issues or has suggestions on how to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this problem, I would greatly appreciate your input.
Thanks in advance for your help.
