  • I've been enjoying the game a lot but the performance is pretty bad for me. I have a GTX 1080 Ti and i7 8700k yet I average around 110 frames (which is not good when I have a 144Hz monitor).

    I see people praising the game's performance so I'm not sure if it's a technical issue on my end or if this game just has really bad high-end optimisation.

    I want this to be visible to devs, because I've tried everything in my power to fix it but nothing has worked.

  • Same here.. have a Ryzen 2700x , 16GB , GTX 1080 but my frames are randomly dropping from 144FPS to around 80 (no matter the settings) which feels like 30.... 

    But I opened 2 threads here and no one seems to have a clue..

    Yeah it's a shame, I hope they fix it soon because I'm really enjoying this game.

    If you have an NVIDIA GPU, please try these steps to help prevent that:

    1. Open the nvidia Control Panel
    2. Click Manage 3D settings
    3. Click the Program Settings tab
    4. Click the Add button
    5. Select the game from the list or click browse and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Apex\r5apex.exe
    6. Select r5apex.exe and then Open
    7. Customise individual settings if you like
    8. Exit nvidia control panel and try playing.

    If this does not help you, please post your Dxdiag so we can take a look, thanks.
