A NVIDIA RTX 4080 Super paired with a Intel Core i5-13600K lands around 185 fps in Apex Legends at 1080p with Ultra textures, High shadows and no upscaling. Ray tracing is left off on this pairing. These values come from the same model the interactive optimizer uses, applied to this exact hardware pair rather than a generic preset.

Apex Legends is comfortable early and difficult late. The final circles, with several squads fighting in a small area and every ability firing at once, are where frame rates fall — and that drop is mostly the CPU rather than the graphics card.
Competitive players usually run low settings not for frames alone but for clarity: fewer particles and less foliage detail makes enemy movement easier to track through a fight.
Covers live matches with full lobbies. End-game circles with many players are the reference workload.
