Today's Patch. Optimizing the game.

Hardware: EVGA 1080TI

Driver: NVIDIA 456.55

Problem: Micro stutters in movement and some textures not loading.

To me this problem has to be something with the game as I have had no issues until 3-4 days ago (Tuesday 27th patch). I also have 3200 hours in the game so I can tell if this is a real problem or not 🙂

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. Game repair

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

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

5. Change monitor refresh from 165hz to 144hz

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

7. Cap frames to 160 or 140 via Rivatuner.

8. Tried NVIDIA drivers 457.09

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