Apex Freezing after ~5 mins of playing

[mkayfas]

Ive had this problem the past 2 weeks, before that I could play the game just fine. Now when I try to play apex I can play for about 5 minutes until it just freezes out of nowhere and I cant tab out or anything so I have to restart my pc. Ive tried EVERYTHING; reinstalled the game 3 times, verified game files, played around with the graphic settings, completely removed my configs, updated my graphics drivers, even tried it on steam and had the same issue. I have NO overlays on either, the game is allowed on my firewall, i "repaired" my EAC, I capped my frames and I set EAC priority to low. I seriously cant find anything else I can do anymore. Please help im losing my mind.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor 3.40 GHz
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
RAM: 16 GB 2400 MHz DDR4 Memory
Windows 10

Hi @mkayfas, I assume you tried the latest seasons patch?

Could you try to do a new windows admin account with admin powers and see if you get the same issue.

@mkayfasTry setting lower ram speeds in bios or disable xmp profile? Also what are your temps? do you have gpu overclock? gpu overclock might be too high for this game making it crash.

@mkayfas Have task manager "always onctop"

Its the only way i can close apex when its being * and won't let me switch tabs. If you have task manager open and have it always on top, when you minimize it it goes away but if the game has an issue you can bring it in front of apex to force close ot
