Looking for a FPS Boost in Apex Legends? We got you covered.

First of all, make sure your graphic card drivers are up to date.

Jn your Intel/Nvidia/AMD graphics card software, set 3d to full performance

In Windows power options, set PC to Max performance

My test setup:

• Graphics card: Intel HD 630 / GTX 1050
• Processor: 7300HQ
• 12 gig ram

Intel 630 Before and after Apex legends FPS tweaks 1280*720

Before:About 30 FPS in tutorial mode

After: About 35-50 FPS in tutorial mode

GTX 1050 1080p

Before: Not running well, didnt check FPS but id guess 35-70

After: 75-100, game still looking pretty nice

Tweaking Apex Legends Settings for a great FPS Boost

First of all you need to have started your game, then put everything to low. Disable anything that can be disabled and put the rest to low, set target framerate as 60(if your FPS is terrible, if its OK but you just want higher, set the max to whatever u want. If you set it too high, your pc will run hot.)

Be sure to set the lowest resolution because it helps a lot.

Create autoexec.cfg in /origin/apex/cfg(under your origin install folder)

(if it doesnt show file extension, go to start menu, type folder options and then unselect ”hide extensions for known filetypes” and press ok)

Enter this into autoexec.cfg and hit save:

fps_max 80
//(Set this to something between 60-144 if you are using a laptop so it doesnt overheat)

mat_compressedtextures 1

cl_ragdoll_collide 0

Edit Apex Legends videoconfig.cfg

C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local

Make a backup copy of your videoconfig.cfg, then edit videoconfig.cfg(not the copy).

You need to check “setting.stream_memory” in your old file file, put your original value of this setting in the new config file below.

To adjust: If you want to increase graphic quality(which will lower FPS), or increase FPS and lower quality even more, you can change the setting: “setting.r_lod_switch_scale” “0.5” (0.35 for the 720p one), this can be changed between 30 and 80(?).

Then replace everything in videoconfig.cfg with this:

}

Now save and close, then right click videoconfig.cfg . select properties and select read only, then click OK.

Finally, set your Apex Legends launch parameters

NOTE: Its good if you know how many threads your Processor has, and your monitors refresh rate.

–threads should be set to your amount of Processor threads

–refresh to your monitors refresh rate

If you dont know any of these are your too lazy to look em up, just remove -threads 4 and -refresh 60 from the line.

Go to Origin, right click Apex Legends, press “Game Options”, then Advanced Startup Options, and paste this:

+exec autoexec -refresh 60 -dev -console -preload -threads 4 -forcenovsync -fullscreen

Thats it! Unless you want to push your FPS even higher? If so, take a look below!
