Re: Apex legends hard crashes my computer

Hey @Zen0fex , I searched a litte for your problem. There some people having probems with their 1080ti, smiular artifacts like you.

I found this -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO2zNMnbIps

and this -> https://forums.evga.com/GTX-1080-Ti-Game-crashes-and-artifacts-m2808676.aspx

..... -> https://forums.evga.com/GPU-artifacts-a-motherboard-issue-or-GPU-issue-m2737884.aspx (look at the pics)

And look at this ("Hello you beautiful people of Reddit!

I have been having a problem that I can't seem to track down. While running more graphically intense games, regardless of graphics settings, will cause artifacting and eventually will freeze either the application or the entire system. While running benchmarks and system stress tests it does not have this behavior however.")

I am very sure that there is a problem with your graphics card, but for some reason the problem does not always show up.

One more thing you can try is, download msi afterburner, downclock your GPU memory and core and see if apex than works. Try -100 to -300.

So... now i have tried everything, and nothing has made any change.
Dont know if its related, but when I clock down in afterburner -300 my computer no longer hard crashes, now it comes with the DXGI error, both device has been physically removed and the other one.
I guess i just have to play something else. Played all the other seasons og apex without serious problems, only the ocationally netword error ect. But season 5 has been a nightmare.
I really do appreciate the help, that was very kind.
Thank you.

@Zen0fex Hm, sounds not good. I would try to remove and reinstall the graphics card, a cable may not be seated correctly or the graphics card may not be properly inserted in the PCI-E connector. Do you have the possibility to test the graphics card in another system? However, it is strange that there are only problems in Apex.

Just tried BF5, and now it also happends in that game.
So i guess my hardware needs more testing.

Quick update.
Borrowed a 1070Ti from a friend. Did DDU and reninstalled drivers.
Now ther game runs just fine, no crashes og glitches.
Now i can conclude its the GPU, agree ?
