Re: Apex FPS drop AMD

Hi,

Sorry about that;

here is the DxDiag information files.

Hey @Felox_xo would you be able to run the DxDiag again but this time in English?

Also, do you happen to know which AMD Radeon R9 200 Series GPU you have? Is it the 270 or the 260 or so on?

Darko

I am Using an AMD Radeon R9 290.

Here is the English DxDiag.

@Felox_xo 

Hey, are you sure that your system isn't too weak? Your graphics card barely meets the ''recommended requirements'' (which usually means ~60fps) and your processor is weaker than the recommended ''Intel i5 3570K'' when it comes to gaming. I also assume that your PC hardware is used for quite some years already, which lowers it's efficiency as well.

What is the average FPS you usually have when you're not in a battle and when you're not in areas like skull town (which are more demanding)?

Let's say your average FPS is around 60, it's obviously going to drop down in demanding areas, especially when there's a big squad fight going on (gunfire, moving characters, abilities, and other visual effects like exploding grenades and wraith portals)

In no way I'm trying to rob you of a solution. I'm simply giving you information. 

Is your system up-to-date (windows, amd card ect.)?

Hey RaziiuM,

I have the recommended requirement for Apex on Can I Run It. My main issue is that no matter what graphic configuration I make I still have droprate in-game bellow 40-30 fps.

I have 60 FPS in game.

I made a reinstallation of my OS and Driver, so I'm pretty sure I'm up to date.

Hey @Felox_xo your GPU would be the baseline required for recommended settings to run the game. What this means is that the game will run on your system but you will not be getting the top performance. If you are seeing issues with FPS drops then I would recommend lowing your settings to see if it makes a difference.

I changed the configuration to low.

Nothing changed about my FPS issue, I still got drops

Try lowering your resolution @Felox_xo and also close down any other programs and overlays that are running when you are playing Apex Legends.

Are there multiple devices connected to your network when you are online?

Darko

Hi Ea_Darko,

When I said I lowered the graphic configuration I also reduced the resolution to minimum.

I close the other programs whenever I play.

I don't think anothers devices on network connection should affect my FPS drop in any way. Anyways, there are multitples devices connected to the network.

Hello,

Since I have not yet resolved this issue

I made a small video to show more precisely how the issue happened.

As you will see, It I downgraded the graphic setting to minimum.

Althought, the game can run to 150 fps and drop to 30.

Note that the capture as been slowed down in order for you to check more precisely the fps drop

The best thing to do @Felox_xo is to cap the FPS as your system is going to struggle with the game.

You can do this by openign your My Game Library and clicking on the game tile for Apex Legends. From here open game properties and under Advanced Launch Options enter +fps_max"60";fps_max_menu".

Darko

still got the fps drop with this edit.
