Re: Apex Legends Stuttering after latest update

Hardware: EVGA 1080TI

Driver: NVIDIA 456.55

To me this problem has to be something with the game as I have had no issues until 3-4 days ago.

I also have this problem (micro stutters in movement/etc). NOTHING has changed on my system and this problem appeared around 3-4 days ago. My FPS is fine 120-165 (165Hz monitor) depending on where you are on the map, but this is normal. Latency is fine 20-30ms. But there are micro stutters in movement. You can clearly see the stutters running in a straight line in the firing range or map. The character "twitches" every couple seconds. If you have an heirloom you can see it even better. There is no positive effect with any of the below changes I have tried:

1. Clear game/origin cache (https://help.ea.com/en-in/help/faq/clear-cache-to-fix-problems-with-your-games)

2. Disable Windows "Full screen optimizations" on Origin and Apex executables

3. Changed NVIDIA low latency mode from on --> ultra --> off

4. Change monitor refresh from 165hz to 144hz

5. Cap frames to 160 or 140 via origin advanced game options.

6. Cap frames to 160 or 140 via Rivatuner.

7. Tried NVIDIA drivers 457.091

8. Turned off NVIDIA Reflex via Origin advanced game options (+gfx_nvnUseLowLatency 0)

    Still looking to see if there is a response for the team on what is occurring.

    Sadly today problem is back.. in one game, gpu used is up to 100% and in another max 80% what causes hugh fps drop. everything was fine since 5days.

  • I don't think we will have any help from the devs or any statement. Since five days game worked well, today working like a.... no words. Wasted alot of time to find reason. Really thanks for "Great" support from devs.

  • I am really stuck also, I just want to know how to fix it. Only seem to struggle with Apex Legends.
