Frequent short lags during gameplay

[Petrolobos]

Hey lads, lately when playing apex, my game would suddenly freeze for about 1 or 2 seconds (both graphics and audio), after that it goes all normal. However it appears so frequently almost once per minute, which totally ruined my gameplay. I've already tried to install the latest nvidia driver or the earlier ones but none worked. Also I've tried to move the game profiles to the SSD, and it didn't help at all.

My PC used to run the game well until this problem came out of nowhere 1 week ago. No idea what's going wrong with it. I believe there are some players who share the same issue with me but I've found no solution yet.

Hopefully the community could help me get rid of this, thanks in advance.

Hey, @Petrolobos  can you try a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with APEX and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

Let me know if this works or not for you.

@EA_Atic Hi Atic thanks for your reply, but the clean boot didn't totally solve the problem but I did find out that the game runs better after the reboot, the lags still exist but not that frequent.

Glad to hear that there are improvements, if you could upload a Dxdiag so wee can see what hardware and drivers you are using. @Petrolobos
