Black Screen + Full System Freeze Only in BF6 (RTX 5070)
Hey everyone, I could really use some help because I’ve tried literally everything and nothing has fixed the issue.
Here’s the situation: only Battlefield 6 is giving me a really strange problem. During a match, my screen goes completely black, the monitor loses signal, the keyboard lights turn off, the sound stops, and everything freezes. The PC itself stays powered on, the fans keep spinning normally, but the whole system becomes unresponsive. I have to turn it off directly from the power supply because nothing else works.
The weird part is that this only happens in BF6. I play several other heavy games and none of them have this issue.
My setup:
Ryzen 9 5900X
MSI GeForce RTX 5070 12GB
32GB RAM
Cooler Master 850W 80 Plus Gold PSU
Gigabyte B550M Aorus Elite motherboard
Windows 11
What I’ve already tried:
Updated BIOS
Reinstalled NVIDIA drivers (Studio and Game Ready) using DDU
Reinstalled BF6
Verified game files on Steam
Tested DX11 and DX12
Disabled all overlays (Steam, Discord, GeForce)
Deleted NVIDIA shader caches
Updated AMD chipset drivers
Tested with only one monitor
Switched PCIe settings between Gen3/Gen4
Stress tested with FurMark (everything stable)
Formatted Windows
So basically, no other game causes black screen or freezes my PC like this — only BF6.
Is anyone with an RTX 50xx dealing with something similar? Could this be a bug specific to this GPU generation? Is there any other setting or fix I might have missed?
Thanks a lot to anyone who can help.
