Try disabling the Geforce Experience and see if you can play without any hang ups or crashes to desktop.

I did that last night and was able to play conquest for a few hours until the EA servers crashed, lol.

@DooRules THANK YOU!!!! I reseated my ram and forced the XMP profile to 3200 (not auto) and it hasn't failed me yet, going on 2 hours. With out XMP on I can play all the Team Death Match I want, but as soon as I loaded Conquest, even 32 player Conquest, it would still crash. My ram is G.SKILL Ripjaws V 3200 mhz 2x8 gbs.

Hey @Tig2r, are you experiencing that your hardware is getting 100% used or any overheating going on for you?

Hello @EA_Atic

 

I watched my video card monitor and apart from the vram used at maximum, everything seems fine.

One time I got a freeze and when I restarted my bios told me that my CPU overheated ...

Its a factory OC video card so I tried to downgrade the base clock to the default settings but the problem was still here.

I tried to format my computer and switch to an SSD (it was time even if it does not matter) to have a clean installation, but the problem was still here.

Finally I switch to directx 12 instead of directx 11 and I installed .net framework 3.5 (I forgot after the clean install), I downgrade the quality to low and I do not have any problems since (I played like 3 hours in row without crash)

However it seems that my processor is less used than before and heats less so maybe it was the problem I don't know.

I can send you a new dxdiag if you want.

 

Cordially,

Try getting a more powerful cooler for your CPU if overheating is the issue for you. Standard smile @Tig2r

 

Thanks for all the steps you done. Standard smile

I'm just joining the bandwagon on the freezing issue. It happens at random, started today (first few days BFV ran fine) Everything is up to date and I can't find any hardware related issues.

 

i7 8700k
Asus Z370 Prime
Kingston 2666Mhz DDR4 16GB
Samsung 850 EVO 500GB
W10 Pro
EVGA GTX 1080 SC ACX 3.0

 

Edit: Added a screenshot of task manager. I think it's safe to say what causes this at this point... Just like with BF1 the CPU is getting hogged. Right now I am playing on LOW with the "min:latency" setting.

Same issue with my Alienware 15R3 + Amplifier running an RTX 2080. I can hear a crash/error box pop up when the screen goes black, but I can't see or do anything and it requires a hard reset to fix. I don't have the issue when running the laptops GTX 1070 without the Amplifier, but no other game has an issue with my RTX 2080.
