Best Apex settings for Arc B570
Recommended at 1080p: expect 70–110 FPS after applying the playbook below. Arc B570 pairs cleanly with Apex — no single component is the wall.
Your Arc B570 and Apex are paired well — neither is the runaway bottleneck. The biggest FPS gains come from a balanced cut: drop a couple of expensive effects (shadows, volumetrics) without touching what makes the game look like Apex.
Apply these settings in Apex
Ranked by FPS impact for tier C hardware. Apply the high-impact ones first — top three usually account for 60% of the gain.
Adds input lag, ruins responsiveness. Apex caps at 300 FPS engine-side; no need for vsync.
Largest single FPS gain in Apex. Visibility doesn't suffer.
Huge GPU cost, dust effects barely visible. Always disabled in competitive setups.
Set to your VRAM minus ~1GB to leave headroom for the OS. Your 10GB card can comfortably stream 9GB of textures.
Sun shadows are a big GPU expense in outdoor zones. Low both keeps frametimes flat in firefights.
Big FPS spike when multiple bodies drop. Low keeps the fight clean.
Removes intro video and unlocks the FPS cap so you hit the engine's 300 ceiling on a capable GPU.
Intel-specific tweaks
These are in Intel Arc Control.
Intel-native upscaler with the best image quality on Arc cards. Equivalent to DLSS Quality preset.
