Hello There!,
the latest nvidia gamescom game ready driver (436.02) claimed massive fps boost in a lot of games. apex being one of them.
i was running on 419.67 for a couple of months cus this was the most stable for me and avg around 120-200fps (depending on the area) at 1080p everything low/off
especially skulltown and containment were places fps tank by quite a lot.
with the 436.02 driver i avg around 180-220fps and dropped to 150-180 in skulltown compared to 120.
specs: i7 8086K, RTX 2060, Win10
I can highly recommend giving the latest drivers a try. you can always roll back if you have bad experiences.
