DXGI Error Device Hung Fix

If you are getting the device hung error I was too. Hopefully this fix works for you because it worked for me. My game is now stable with the latest patch of season 4. Go and download a program call...

I am surprised none of the people getting this error have tried my fix or have responded to this post. Just and update... As of now I have played all night, many hours with no device hung error crash. Completely stable.

Hey, For those who tried to update their graphic drivers but it didn't work:

I also have this issue since I reinstalled windows 10 a few days ago...

I tried to reinstall my graphic drivers with DDU several times with different drivers but to no avail.

So with GPU-Z I checked what was happening with my GPU (GTX1070 EVGA) during the crashes and I saw that my GPU would reach 100% load at the moment it crashes (before the crash it is at around 98% load)

So I downloaded an "overclocking" GPU software (EVGA Precision) and set the clock to -50 and no more crashes in Apex.

Basically, I had to underclock my GPU to avoid the problems. I haven't tested that for a long period but when I tried it worked consistently for several minutes and when I would reset the GPU clock to its default value it would crash almost right away.

Hope this can also help others.
