Low GPU Performance

Hey, @gabrielgnd1  can you try a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with APEX and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

I did clean boot and worked on previous season and not now. This is my Dxdiag

Hey @gabrielgnd1 ,

I noticed a few things that might help you.

• You have installed relatively little RAM and possibly only in single channel. It would be advisable to retrofit RAM.
• Your system has often had problems (crashes) with Prime95 and Windows Explorer. Of course, make sure that your system is stable. Make sure the chipset driver is installed, it is often forgotten. A BIOS update is aviable for your mainboard: https://de.msi.com/Motherboard/support/H310M-PRO-VDH-PLUS#down-bios . You can check in the BIOS whether the xmp profile is loaded. Call cmd as administrator and type in: sfc/scannow .If problems are found, then restart your system. Open cmd again as admin and type in (you can also copy and paste it by right-clicking in the cmd window): dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth . Restart. As an alternative to repairing, I recommend reinstalling Windows.
• To me it looks like you only have a basic windows graphics driver. Download and install the latest driver: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/179682/en-us .
• Deactivate the Windows game mode, this can be counterproductive and cost performance.
• Delete all temporary files (some cannot be deleted in normal operation): Press Windows + R, type in: %Temp% and delete everything in there.
• Clean and defrag your storage, there is not much space left.

I hope it helps you.

Make sure GSync is enabled in compatibility mode.

Also activate Vsync in the driver settings for Apex Legends. Disable Vsync ingame.

Enable GPU scaling in the driver settings.

Enable Nidia Reflex in Boost mode in Apex legends, don't cap framerate otherwise (only if you should exceed 190 fps). It works even better for me if I deactivate Nvidia Reflex with the start command. Strangely enough, it still remains active, but the micro lags have disappeared.

Hey! Thank You for recommending me to update My BIOS. It didn't work...cleanboot sometimes help and now it don't. I already installed the NVIDIA Driver using Geforce Experience and using classic Clean Install...didn't work as well. I already stress test it and this is my csv.

Well I can't upload my csv so here's the graph

nvm I can't upload the graph either...so here's a guy told me 

"Seems you're caching way too much to the pagefile, you're over 90% mem usage most of the time, that may be why you're having freezes and drops in GPU usage. (Not shown on graphic) You're at 100% read rate on your Seagate Pipeline, which is in no way meant to be used for gaming, it's usually reserved for stocking video footage. Red: Mem usage in %, Blue write on your Seagate Pipeline HDD in %, green GPU usage in %"

Do you know how to ....fix that rather than buying a new ram stick?

@gabrielgnd1 Well, you could create the swap file on c (your SSD) fix to 16gb and deactivate it anywhere else. You could also benefit from deactivating the Shader Cache for Apex in your driver, which in theory should provide more performance with a slow storage medium. A tool called Intelligent standby list cleaner could also come in handy at this point. You have to try this out though, I can't promise you anything.

You would benefit twice from a RAM upgrade: you would have enough memory and your RAM would give you more FPS and better frame times by dual channel. The costs for an identical RAM stick are certainly manageable and definitely worthwhile.
