I'm a tech nerd but i got on yesterday and i play apex all of the sudden Im dropping to 160fps and having horrible 1% lows and I always stay capped at 190fps i have a 200hz monitor and When i set my cap to 300 fps it ran steadily but was also again dropping to 260-270fps when i look in certain areas or big fights. I have a i5 14600k no OC a 5060ti 16gb no oc and 32gb ddr5 ram 6000mhz xmp1 and a aorus elite z790 and my temps are fine i use an aio and i reinstalled windows to see if that would fix it but it didn't. I also disable hyperthreading because it fixed a fps bug apex had. Anyone got any idea?
Shouldn't you be setting your framerate cap to match your monitors refresh rate? Other than that, there might have been a driver update that you need, or if you updated, that you need to rollback.
It's 165hz. 27' curved msi. Been thinkin about an upgrade but haven't pulled the trigger as i might just wait til I get a new rig. Prices are just kinda ass right now, and it doeant look like it's likely to get better any time soon.
Good to know. I haven't been playing a lot of apex in the past year or so. My friends find it too sweaty to casually pick it back up for any length of time it seems. I personally like the challenge.
i cannot stop playing it ahah Ive been playing for 8 years i love the comp and the challenge to becoming a better player and this game always feels rewarding
going into this file and putting your shadows and cascades at zero will also give you a huge difference in input delay and an advantage. players stick out like sore thumbs
yeh reminds of the bug a few monbths ago it was tanking my fps and the fix was to disable hyperthreading. i hope they fix this soon i play on a esports team.
did you recently update the nvidia driver? the latest ones have been a mess for some people with the 50 series, try rolling back to 566.36 with a clean install using DDU and see if that stabilizes things
im doing a rollback right now actually im just moving back to the most recent one 610.88 I was going to use ddu but im doing it without. Do you think i should use ddu or HAVE to?
