Random lag spikes

Hi, i need ugent to know cause the lag spikes are now more frecuent, i really want to try and fix this but i have tried everything, update drivers, all sort of game settings, changing cpu, clean reinstallation both apex and windows, the only thing left is changing gpu but i dont have more money for that, anyone can help me fix this? putting a youtube link as an example.

i have a Ryzen 5 3600 with a 1060 3gb gpu.

    Hey @ElPolloZukulento,

    That video definitely looks a bit choppy, sorry you're having to try and play like that.

    Have you tried going through these steps to see if this is being impacted by a connection related issue at all? 

    Of particular interest may be the steps to flush and/or change your DNS.

    If you're still seeing the same thing after that point, attaching a DxDiag may help give us a bit more info about what could be going on here. Thanks!

    I already did some of those things, maybe with the windows install the dns changed so im going to set them up again, didnt knew about the discord acceleration, im going to turn that off and see how it goes, some of the lag spikes (not all) ocurred when someone talked in a server im in. going to try it and check how it goes, thanks you! replying if the issues still occurs.
