Re: Computer Rebooting When Launching Battlefield 2042

@The_Tibber 

Yeah logs are fun! 😂 I'm not sure why replacing a PSU worked for someone compared to capping CPU performance for another. This is why I believe it's an issue with 2042 itself, those things could be coincidence if it isn't widespread, ya know? Obviously low chance, but still a possibility! 

We have seen software cause damage to hardware already with New World exposing cheap components. Not saying that is the case here, but it has happened. 

I didn't mention that in the beta, I was able to run at 1440p, medium no problem for 3 hours (that's as long as I played it to get a taste). 

So something between the beta and the full release has done something that prevents me from running it stable. 


My PSU is only 6 months old, if that and it's a Seasonic Focus 850; which are very good PSUs. 

I'm still stuck on the RAM issue because it's weird how the RAM just ramps up continually but never stops eating the available capacity. 

I might try a log running for as long the PC crashes to see how that looks. 

Just for fun I installed BF:V last night, and I can run that at 4K high no problem - I do it on DX11 though because DX12 has a weird bug for me where I HAVE to alt+f4 the game to close it.
