Re: Apex Legends Crash no error - PC (apex_crash.txt)

@jnikoley I don't know exact details about AVX and so on but what i do know is that Apex screws up its AVX instructions and this was issue for me back in s3. There was huge outcry about this and devs had no knowledge what caused it and kept blaming faulty intel CPU's and so on.

Up to this date no customer support or respawn dev has offered me better solution or solution at all and they still blame softwares or hardware for their messed up code

    AVX is an instruction set for rendering that can cause your CPU temps to increase. Putting a “2” for your AVX offset means your CPU will downclock by 200 MHz from it’s max turbo when performing AVX tasks. 

    Anyway, I tried it along with running RAM speed and OC at stock. Made no difference. Still crashing.  I’m now rolling back to a Nvidia driver I was using in season 2 that worked flawlessly. Even if it doesn’t work, I can at least rule out a Nvidia driver being the cause of the crashes.

    Game still crashes on the old driver. Definitely an issue with the game as this driver worked without issue on that driver in season 2.

  • Guys, I'm not sure why but I realized if I maintain my overclock but set my VCCIO/VCCSA to Auto, I do not crash anymore at all. Ensure that your temps are in check. Can anyone else confirm this?

    I have the same issue with Battlefront 2 and setting VCCIO/VCCSA to Auto solved my CTD. Problem is on auto the voltages are abit high.

    This way helped me
    I have a z390 aorus pro motherboard. I went into the BIOS, section: advanced settings of the CPU core, there is an AVX offset, set 2. After that, the game crashed with an error: dxgi_error_device_removed. I went into the game folder and installed directx from there. For 3 hours of the game, not a single crash, although before that every match stably crashed without error

    Be careful because those voltages shouldn't be much above 1.15v.
