Are you overclocking? What are your current CPU BIOS settings? (GHz, voltage, etc.)
Yes. 5ghz on all cores with voltage set to 1.3v adaptive mode. Its stable on everything ive tested. After reading this thread, I decided to remove the overclock to see if the crashing stops. I havent played much yet to give a definite answer.
Drop your overclock. Either get rid of it or decrease it. I have a 8700K and was running stable in everything up until the recent patches in Apex. Dropped mine from 5GHz down to 4.4GHz and didn’t crash at all over ~6-7 hours. Today I bumped it up to 4.8GHz and have yet to crash after another ~7-8 hours. I reset my entire bios back to default when I decreased it as well. I enabled XMP, disabled EIST and Turbo Boost, and put the clock at the specified speed that’s all I touched this time around and I have yet to have a crash since doing so. 5GHz seems to be common culprit but other with higher clocks have crashed to. Not sure what changed in the code that’s triggering the game to crash so much now at high overclocks.
