Game freezes, then looses connection to server (AMD FX-6300 related?)

[Malazzan]

Pretty sure it's the whole 6xxx series of AMD cpus. I get the same issue with the 6100.

[DanielCYA]

same here. FX 6300 and 1060 3GB

pretty sure it isnt CPU based problem unless its Several CPUs in question that this is affecting and not just AMD but also Intel

Hello, I am also having this problem! Last disconnect was at around 3pm 2/9/2019. It would be nice if a community manager could put out a statement, i found it pretty disappointing to be seemingly alone in the error. Thank you!

Specs:

• AMD FX-6300 3.50GHz 6-Core
• 16GB RAM DDR3
• GTX 1050 Ti 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Card
• 1 TB 7200RPM Hard Drive

I have the exact issue described. I have same CPU as well AMD FX-6300. 

I can run the game at 2560 x 1080 21.9 aspect ratio at 80 to 85 FPS. The game is running along fine and I get Frozen screen. It normally comes back and I can look with mouse but can't move. 5 seconds later I get the disconnect error. It used to be only in option menus but now can happen anytime. It happens after few mins of launching Apex after I spend 5 mins or so in the options or on ready screen. Today it started to occur during matches. Always ends in disconnect from match.

Could it be the number of cores [6] being the root issue? Has anyone tried to only use 4? I think you can force Windows to report and only use 1, 2, 4, or 6 in the case of AMD FX-6300..

Im not sure how to do this, but can you let me know if it works?

[Dexorf]

@THC_QuakeMe2 I just had the same thought!

I went to task manager and tried to change task affinity, but it wouldnt let me for some reason, even with admin privileges. 

So I went ahead and disabled 2 of my cores in BIOS. Will update you how it goes!

Same. Probably 25% of the time I slide, the game freezes and I have to force close it. Super annoying.

GTX 970

16GB DDR3

Win10 Home 1803, though 1809 finally decided it was my time, so maybe tomorrow it will be better?

I have an FX-6100 and I tried your method of disabling cores 5 & 6 after hours of trying various things and it fixed all of my issues and now the game runs better than it did before I could even play without crashing.
I recommend everyone try disabling the 5th and 6th cores as at least a last ditch effort,

[Dexorf]

Alright, I have played for 2 hours without getting disconnected, in menu or the game itself. I don't want to jump the gun and say this is a fix, but if you have an FX-6xxx series processor, it might be worth it to try and go into bios and turn off two of your cpu' s cores.

Unless I am an idiot and they already rolled out a fix and that is why noone has posted in this thread in 2 hours : - D
