Quick Answer

The RTX 6070 pushes Apex Legends to 220-280fps at 1440p on competitive settings with DLSS Quality, easily saturating a 240Hz panel. For ranked play, drop shadows and volumetrics to Low, set textures to High, and use DLSS Quality for the cleanest frame pacing.

RTX 6070 Apex Legends frame numbers

In Storm Point and Olympus open zones the 6070 averages 270fps at 1440p with competitive settings and DLSS Quality. Final-ring fights with smoke, fire and full squads drop lows to 195-210fps, still well above any reasonable monitor's refresh. World's Edge train station scenes test the card hardest. With Reflex Low Latency Boost enabled, system latency stays under 18ms, exactly where competitive Apex needs to live for clean tracking.

Best competitive Apex settings

Adaptive Resolution off, DLSS Quality on, V-Sync off, Anti-Aliasing TAA, Texture Streaming Budget High, Effects Detail Low, Volumetric Lighting Disabled, Dynamic Spot Shadows Disabled, Model Detail High, Ragdolls Low. Cap framerate two below your monitor's refresh (so 238fps on a 240Hz panel) for cleanest frame pacing. Enable Reflex On + Boost. These settings prioritise visibility and consistent input over pretty visuals, which is exactly what ranked Apex demands.

SA buying considerations

In ZAR, the 6070 is the proper choice for competitive 1440p Apex players who want headroom on 240Hz or 360Hz panels. Pair it with a Ryzen 7 9800X3D or Intel Core Ultra 7 for the lowest possible 1% lows, since Apex remains CPU-bound in late-game fights. Local delivery means you can have a complete build running varsity LAN-ready within days of ordering.
