BF6 forcefully shutting down my PC
Hello, Since today (I've been playing since launch on Friday with over 10 hours until the issue) I can't really play BF6. After 15 mins or so my PC forcefully shuts down, similar to what happens whe...

Utherr93 The PC is rebooting in the middle of a game? That's usually a hardware stability issue.
Try these steps one at a time so you know which one fixes the hardware crashes.
1. Update the motherboard BIOS firmware to the latest version.
2. Disable XMP/EXPO memory overclocking in motherboard BIOS.
3. Downclock GPU core and VRAM frequency by 200MHz.
4. Disable both PBO & CPB in motherboard BIOS if you have an AMD CPU.
If still reboot crashing I'd run memory error checks with HCI MemTest.
OskooI_007 Never have I ever mentioned rebooting in my posts. I only mentioned shut down, there's no rebooting involved.
PS: I tried everything there, there's nothing wrong and does not help my issue.
Utherr93 seems like a faulty RAM stick to me, but you said they all tested good.
The only thing I can think left to try is installing one RAM stick into the motherboard at a time and seeing if the PC crashes and shuts down.
Through the process of elimination you might discover which one of the RAM sticks might be faulty.
Having 4 RAM sticks installed puts extra stress on the memory controller. Only having one RAM stick installed will lessen the stress and be a good test.
I could try that, but why doesn't it happen when I used to play DCS World in multi-player where the game alone consumes 35GB of ram?
Utherr93 The Frostbite game engine hammers the memory controller with a bunch of input/output requests.
Frostbite engine might not use much RAM storage capacity but it uses a lot of memory bandwidth.
