Hi,
I’m having a serious issue with Battlefield 6 on PC Steam.
After launching the game, everything runs fine initially, but after 15 minutes from start up, my entire PC freezes completely. This is not just a game crash — the whole system locks up. I lose all input (keyboard, mouse, controller), and I have to force a shutdown using the power button.
What I’ve already tried:
Reinstalled the game
Verified game files
Updated NVIDIA GPU drivers
Updated Windows and BIOS
Disabled overlays (Discord, Steam, etc.)
No overheating issues (temps are normal)
Other games run perfectly fine
Specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X (6-core, 12 threads)
GPU: [ADD YOUR GPU HERE — important]
RAM: 32GB (speed unknown — likely DDR5, please confirm MHz)
Motherboard: MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI
OS: Windows 11 Home (Build 26200)
This issue only happens with Battlefield 6.
Has anyone else experienced this or found a fix? Any help would be appreciated it started happening over 2 weeks ago.
Thanks
