Apex Legends update fixes stuttering on AMD X3D CPUs by optimizing physics

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A recent update for the game Apex Legends addresses stuttering issues experienced by players with AMD Ryzen X3D processors. The developers at Respawn Entertainment identified that the high performance of these CPUs, particularly their V-Cache technology, was exposing inefficiencies in the game's physics algorithms at very high frame rates. The patch aims to optimize these calculations, ensuring smoother gameplay for users pushing frame rates above 240 FPS. AI
