Does this count as cheating

Hey! So, I found a setting in the Nvidia control panel (found under Manage 3D settings -> Program Settings -> Selecting Apex -> Low Latency Mode)

 

Basically, it's a mode that gets rid of latency in the game so my movements, shots, etc aren't delayed. Does this count as cheating?

 

The description for the setting is as follows; https://gyazo.com/179be7814dfd088e6ea3a8a5221b7c0a

 

Does this count as cheating? In the thread "EA play by the rules;https://gyazo.com/7067b0d9646e5b98010c8ab60badaebf

 

This isn't anything like speed hacks, wall hacks / esp hacks etc. It's just a setting that makes your input from your keyboard & mouse more accurate or responsive.

It's not something that is game-breaking, just a new technology NVIDIA uses to further enhance competitive gaming.
So I would be really surprised if this would be bannable / I don't even know if this is detectable by AC software.

I'll see if I can get something more solid, but my interpretation is that this isn't cheating, that it's a local optimisation comparable to dropping graphics settings to get a better framerate. 

If I get an official yay or nay on the subject I'll update the thread.
