Re: 1 CPU core gets stuck at 100% after playing Apex for a while

I think I have the same problem.

After starting the game (more precisely after the EAC is loaded), a process called "System" will take 10% of the CPU until it returns to normal after about 5 to 10 minutes.

Problem:

·The "System" process will occasionally call GPU0-Cpoy during the period of irregularity;

·If you quit the game during this period, steam will keep showing the game as running until the "System" process returns to normal.

·The game will be not smooth, although the frame rate is 160+.

    So interestingly enough, something had changed last week and this problem did not occur for most of the week at all. However, when I played today, the problem is there again... I don't know what is going on, but it sure is annoying and makes the game unplayable whenever it happens.

    So this has AGAIN become an issue for me. Had a break from Apex for about 2 months (was working pretty much fine before that) and now that I came back, one CPU core gets stuck at 100% once again after about 5-10 minutes of playing. Is there any permanent fix to this * still and is anyone else experiencing this? Would be great to play, especially since I just got my first heirloom shards, but there's no way I'm playing it like this. EAC, fix your *.

    Since there seems to be no way of directly contacting support, I guess I'll just bump this thread... Any solutions to this problem? I would really like to be able to play the game.

    Was hopeful for this issue to be dealt with by the new season start and patch but no.. still the same issue. One CPU core gets stuck at 100% after 5-10 minutes of playing. PLEASE FIX THIS.

    @Vuhra Same issue here.

    Specs; I9 9900k/RTX 3070.

    I've had this issue for the longest time (6 months or more).
    Tried everything, from reinstalling OS multiple times from windows 11 to windows 10.

    This is the only game where this issue comes up on, and sometimes its fine and other times its just there.

    i've also tried to set the CPU affinities to certain cores, disabled Hyperthreading, tried different NVIDIA drivers, checked system stability with tenths of different tools.

    I literally tried everything, and I am so pissed that it is still not fixed and frametimes are bad because of this.

    Next thing I will try is to buy new mobo, CPU, ram etc. There needs to be a way to report the issue...

    I've tried through the official channels, but the bug report functionality itself is bugged, and there is no way to report this.


    EA PLEASE FIX

    So the problem is with Easy Anti Cheat. EAC was doing the same exact thing on Lost Ark game, devs issued a fix for this however. Does anyone from development team even read this forum? Seems that people on this thread have been complaining about this for a good while and nothing has ever happened..

    @Zeelmaekers any help please?
