Apex Legends Adds NVIDIA Reflex, Improving Gameplay Responsiveness

EA’s ever-popular Apex Legends is the latest title to add NVIDIA Reflex, an in-game option that reduces system latency for millions of GeForce gamers. System latency (often referred to as “input lag”), is one of the key factors affecting the responsiveness of any kind of gameplay. And when playing online, low system latency can make you more competitive.

NVIDIA Reflex is enabled by default in Apex Legends and can be accessed through a command line argument when starting the game. In the future, there will be a UI option for enabling/disabling NVIDIA Reflex.

To enable/disable NVIDIA Reflex manually:

1. Open the Origin Launcher
2. Go to My Game Library
3. Find Apex Legends and right-click the game
4. Select Game Properties
5. Click the Advanced Launch Options tab
6. +gfx_nvnUseLowLatency 0 to disable NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency
7. +gfx_nvnUseLowLatency 1 to enable NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency
8. Click Save

NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency reduces system latency and increases PC responsiveness by up to 30% in Apex Legends in GPU bound scenarios:
