    @HedonismBot14 This seems fixed now on driver 528.02. Max settings, max FOV, have not crashed yet in my quick testing on 4080 FE.

@Darth_Norm yes there is a workaround for it !
Read full topic would help ya already !

It seems FOV larger then 70 gives issues !
Display settings at High only would solve issues also !
And something with terrain display settings could solve yourw issues !!

So best way is set all to HIGH , and lower fov, keep in mind there is an known issue with the 40xx series GPU at this moment !

Keep up uptodate !

    @Kuiriel need to play around with display settings (set to high, fov 70 or lower)
    Also some only could turn down OC by 100 a 200Mhz from GPU !
