    OK, I've found the solution for me. All I had to do is disable RivaTunerStatistics Server which comes with MSI Afterburner. To do that the "nice" way you need to go to your MSI Afterburner installation directory, open MSIAfterburner.cfg with any text editor and find "EnableServer" string, then set its value to 0. For some reason after the recent update BF1 conflicts with this tool in DX12 mode. 

    No more crashes for me. Hope this helps someone!
