Hey everyone! I've been trying to play Apex Legends lately but it just runs very poorly on my pc despite having some decently high specs. They are way above the minimum requirements for the game but it is still constantly lagging. I have turned the video settings as low as possible and I still am having huge issues with lag. On top of this I also see red glares all over the map and black pixels covering some of the characters. I tried updating my video drivers and still no success.
Anyone know any fixes to this problem either in game or for my pc?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hey @ahajos03
It looks like your Computer is using your intel graphics when playing Apex Legends.
You might want to disable your integrated graphics so Apex will be using your 960M.
How To disable your intel graphics:
Press the Windows button and X at the same time.
A list will pop up and select Device Manager, this will open window and find the Display Adapters list.
Right-click on the listed display intel integrated graphics accelerator and select disable. Do not select uninstall as this may cause further problems.
I also noticed you are on an old driver version.
You might want to update it to the latest NVIDIA 422.50 drivers.
You can update your drivers by using Geforce Experience or download them manually over here: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
Let me know if Apex Legends runs better after these steps.
