I reset my Laptop few days back and installed apex legends. Installed Nvidia graphics driver. MSI afterburner and Riva tuner. 

So, in video settings. when I have full screen. I am getting 12fps but when I change it to window mode then I get perfectly 40 fps (cap I set using Riva tuner) Before resetting everything was working perfectly and smooth. can anyone help me how to fix this issue?

 

Laptop Specs: (Asus Fx553VD) 

i7 7700hq @2.8Ghz, GTX 1050 Ti GDDR5 @4 GB (128-bit) , 8Gb Ram.

Sounds like maybe Windows is deciding to use the iGPU when in fullscreen for some reason. First thing I'd do is (without the game running) go into Settings -> Display -> Graphics Settings and add a profile for Apex to force it to always use the High Performance GPU.

Powerspec 1530 (Clevo PB50DF2) ~ i7 10875H ~ RTX 2070 Super 115W ~ 32GB DDR4 ~ 2x 1TB NVMe ~ 2TB 5400RPM ~ 1080P 240hz matte IPS

 

Gigabyte G1 GA-970-SLI ~ FX 8320 @ 3.3Ghz, 1212mV ~ 16GB DDR3 ~ Radeon 570 4GB ~ 512GB NVMe ~ 2x 1TB HGST 7200RPM

Did that already all I suspect that my monitor refresh rate is not matching the game refresh rate when I full screen. IDK it happened to me for the first time. Because of it I can't even play properly. like if I increase resolution my GPU throttles, if I reduce resolution I cant see people. Mehhhh
