BF6 crashing and causing PC to restart

5090 & 9800x3d 

Same problem as all of you... freezes for 2 seconds then BF6 crashes without any error... I'm going crazy... 🤬

Hey Bryfon​ ,  someone said in a comment that uninstalling and reinstalling anti-cheat solved it for them. You might want to try it  :

I have stable crash like that...

Hello everyone,

I am facing persistent crashing problems with Battlefield 6 on my PC, although the system is stable and all other games run fine. The crashes happen within minutes of gameplay and make the game unplayable.

PC Specifications:

• GPU: Nvidia RTX 3080 Aorus Master
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D
• Motherboard: Aorus B550 Pro AC
• Storage: Samsung 980 Pro Gen 4 NVMe SSD
• Cooling: NZXT Kraken X73 liquid cooler
• OS: Windows 11 64-bit fully updated
• GPU Drivers: Latest Nvidia official BF6-optimized drivers
• Antivirus: Disabled during troubleshooting
• Additional Software: EA App, no third-party overlays active

Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

1. Fully uninstalled and reinstalled Battlefield 6 with DLCs.
2. Disabled antivirus and third-party overlay apps (Discord, GeForce Experience).
3. Cleared EA App cache and repaired game files.
4. Updated Windows and motherboard BIOS to the latest versions.
5. Updated Nvidia GPU drivers, including BF6-specific releases, and rolled back when needed.
6. Forced DirectX 11 mode with launch option -dx11.
7. Disabled Nvidia Reflex+Boost, enabled TAA, and turned off DLSS, FSR, and all frame generation features.
8. Disabled the unstable FSR 2.0 pipeline by adding GlimpseEnable 0 and GlimpseTelemetryEnable 0 in user.cfg.
9. Increased virtual memory/pagefile size.
10. Edited user.cfg with optimized thread and processor settings as recommended.
11. Disabled XMP profile in BIOS.
12. Ran stress tests: Cinebench for CPU and 3D Furmark for GPU for over 10 minutes each with stable temperatures and no errors.
13. Fixed Windows DistributedCOM permission errors through registry and Component Services adjustments.
14. Verified power delivery to GPU and confirmed system thermal stability.

Despite these exhaustive attempts, Battlefield 6 continues to crash sporadically. Other games are unaffected, indicating this issue is specific to BF6 on my setup.

Has anyone encountered similar persistent crashes with a Ryzen 5800X3D and RTX 3080 rig? Any advice or advanced troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated. I have also contacted EA Support, but input from the community is invaluable.

Thank you for reading!

This is happening to me as well and i have tried just about everything suggested, except updating my bios. No other game crashes like this, it has to be something with bf6 itself. I really hope this is om their radar and they are working on a fix. It's unplayable for me

the game hard crash's my pc from time to time as well and when ever i try and play conquest viv official servers or custom i almost always have FPS issue and lag issue's to the point my guy is running super slow. MY pc specs are GPU: 3080 CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700K CPU @ 3.70GHz (3.70 GHz). It sucks due to i don't think ea will refund me my money so i can buy the game on steam and try it on there even more so since i got the phantom edition, i tried playing on medium settings and it did nothing to help.

What weird for me is the game ran flawless for the first 4 days. And now every time I play it crashes to desktop with no error pop up. Definitely seems like it's just the game and not our hardware being defective. I've updated absolutely everything I can and it just crashed again. EA needs to acknowledge this issue or people are going to stop playing.

PluckyTheBirch​ there's a qualified vendor list (QVL) which lists compatible memory that's been tested by the motherboard manufacturer.

I don't know if you have an B450 Aorus Elite version 1 or version 2 motherboard, but here's the QVL list for version 2 with a Vermeer CPU. You can find the QVL list under the 'Support List' on your motherboard's support page at Gigabyte's website.

I've been burned before buying incompatible RAM for my motherboard. Now I always buy a RAM kit listed on the QVL list.

You'll notice in the list that some RAM kits are only compatible with two memory sticks and are incompatible with 4 memory sticks.

If crashing to desktop, check Windows Event Viewer for Battlefield 6 or EA anti-cheat errors. Also check Documents\Battlefield 6\ CrashDumps.

If the PC is shutting down during the crash, then it's almost certainly a hardware stability issue.

BF6 seems to cause my computer to restart at random in multiplayer, and restarts my computer at a specific point in the Cairo going dark mission every time. I don’t know what would be even causing the issue, as I’ve tried repairing the game and updating my drivers but that doesn’t seem to work at all. I don’t know how I would fix it and the bug only happens when playing BF6, and I didn’t experience this issue during the open beta.
