DirectX Error

Hi I've attached my pc specs to this post. I keep getting DirectX errors sometimes right after I launch the game and sometimes in the middle of a match. I've tried to update my drivers, clean installation etc but they are already up to date. 

Anyone having similar problem and solved it?

Thanks in advance

    I've changed my Corsair RAMs to GSKILL and now it's compatible with my Motherboard. However, after this I still got similar errors.

    I've done some digging and I think I've found the source of issue. It's my graphic card which is overclocked by default(ROG STRIX 3080OC).

    When I turn off the overclock with GPU Tweak III, I don't get any error messages. I hope this helps people having similar problems.

    @alcakmuhendis you need to check of the part number from your ram is in the QVL from your motherboard ! If its niot in the QVL then its not tested with the motherboard you got. Could cause issues , especially like the (next gen) game as BF2042

    I've already checked. It's not listed in the QVL of my motherboard. If that's the reason, what about hundreds of people suffering this exact same error? Do all of them have incompatible RAMs & motherboards? I don't think so.

    @alcakmuhendis if ya asked pc experts, they all will agree that ram thats not in qvl can cause issues , especially under heavy load from data and/or bios settings with oc/voltage and cl settings from ram!!!

    I really thank your for your help and suggestions but I still think that there's another reason behind this.

    I have the same error. I have read the whole convo here and i saw that the issue is probably that my gpu is automatically overclocking. I have a gigabyte rtx 3080 and is there anyone who knows where i can at least lower the voltage or just stop it from overclocking?
