Can't fix DirectX error no matter what i do! HELP!

So i noticed many users have problems with DirectX error. I still can't solve it no matter what i do and it is really annoying. usually it shows 1-2 hours of gameplay of BF4 Single and Multiplayer. But i get this s***** error just in BF4 all other games work well! I really tried almost everything i saw on the Internet, deleted my graphic card drivers and installed them again, deleted directX and installed it back and other stuff...but i cant fix it and i am realy desperate now! And if it can get even worse, i bought a new computer right now 1. because i needed it but 2. because i am a huge fan of battlefield and i really wanted to play BF4 but now i am really sad because of this error, i already had a lot of problems playing BF3 because of such errors with Punk buster and now i have problems again. I also had problems with wierd flickering textures but i somehow fixed that.... Please help! I apologize for my bad english!

I am 100% sure i have the correct drivers installed and that my new graphic card is working correctly! I have SAPPHIRE TOXIC R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 graphic card.

This is the error that shows up: http://i.imgur.com/FnAkJfh.png

Edit: The flickering is still here! :/

I have a idea for you not sure it will work for you or not but I would try sfc /scannow its a system file checker in windows and repairs windows errors. It has fixed a few BF4 errors for me as it fixed windows issues and in turn made BF4 more stable lol. See this link for info how to do it.... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
When I run it and it cant fix all the errors then I reboot and run it again until it finds zero errors. Also always run the command prompt as admin
This next part only works for win 8,1 and win 8 if I recall correct ...... if you get a message indicating that it can not be repaired, run this command
dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
Sadly we may think our windows are stable but when we look in event viwer and see errors you can bank its not lol. So this is why I run
sfc /scannow as it has saved me many a format and fixed a few issues with BF4 caused by errors in windows. I hope this will help you.

Anyone saying to try this or that; it just isn't the problem - it's happening in BF4 since the update, I can play Hardline fine without ever getting a single crash ... I get the DirectX crash after 5 minutes of BF4.
It isn't your drivers, it isn't your OS, your graphics card etc - It's BF4, it's DICE... they need to respond to these threads and need to patch this bug.

^ THIS

you can try as much as you want, the game WONT run stable anymore.
every other game works just fine as it should. hell...i'm playing watch dogs on ultra with 40 fps, and the game doesnt crash in 6 hours of playing.
i play every game of mine without ANY directX crash.
as soon as i start BF4 i crash after a few minutes with directX crash or instanly at the start.

It's so frustrating that NO ONE of the EA people here or advisors Direct this to The developer team.
see how much they give a F*** for us ? exactly-NON.

no official word regarding to this issue, whetever from EAadvisros, EA; f orum mods, BL forum mods, no DICE itself.

this is a f****** SHAME !
