[PC] BF1 directX problem ?
I played the game today in the morning and for a full week now, and everything worked ok.
Today evening I tried to play, this is the message I got:

this would happen to me when i overclocked my EVGA 970 sc to much also when paired with an i5 2320, so i just decreased the clocks on the GPU until those messages stopped appearing, to be honest i didn't need to overclock my card as it already comes with boosted clock speeds, i have no problems now but BF1 still isn't up to scratch in terms performance, even the high end machines still have fps issues (some people not all). also made the switch from windows 7 to 10 and man the difference is night and day in terms of performance in BF1, i'm not sure about every game but i wouldn't be surprised if windows 10 offers a vast improvement across the board.

In this case it was your PC instead of the game that wasn't up to scratch since your CPU was below the minimum required CPU to run BF1 (see system specs below): You can see how your CPU compares to the minimum CPU required here: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i5-6600K-vs-Intel-Core-i5-2320
Just because an under spec PC will run the game doesn't mean that it will always run and reliably run the game after game title or driver updates.
BF titles traditionally have issues with overclocked hardware so your method of reducing the clock speed is a good one to start with which seemed to have luckily worked for you.
