Apex Legends loves a strong GPU for sure. High FPS and smooth gameplay all the way if your graphics card is up to par. But a weak CPU will still make you lag in the middle of a firefight, trust me, been there.

Depends on how you look at it, but Apex Legends usually leans more on the GPU, especially on higher settings. The game is pretty well optimized, so a decent GPU will get you those sweet high frames. But don't ignore your CPU, a good one prevents bottlenecks, especially in heavy action scenes.

All about balance, folks. Don't go all in on the GPU and skimp on the CPU. Apex will tax both.
