Constant freezes/crashes on PC. Unplayable.

Like the title says - i have constant freezes with Battlefield V on PC. Whenever it does, my PC does as well - i can't alt-tab nor go to the taskmanager. I can't even push the physical reset button. ...

Hello @EA_Atic

I watched my video card monitor and apart from the vram used at maximum, everything seems fine.

One time I got a freeze and when I restarted my bios told me that my CPU overheated ...

Its a factory OC video card so I tried to downgrade the base clock to the default settings but the problem was still here.

I tried to format my computer and switch to an SSD (it was time even if it does not matter) to have a clean installation, but the problem was still here.

Finally I switch to directx 12 instead of directx 11 and I installed .net framework 3.5 (I forgot after the clean install), I downgrade the quality to low and I do not have any problems since (I played like 3 hours in row without crash)

However it seems that my processor is less used than before and heats less so maybe it was the problem I don't know.

I can send you a new dxdiag if you want.

Cordially,

Try getting a more powerful cooler for your CPU if overheating is the issue for you. 🙂 @Tig2r

Thanks for all the steps you done. 🙂

    I'm just joining the bandwagon on the freezing issue. It happens at random, started today (first few days BFV ran fine) Everything is up to date and I can't find any hardware related issues.

    i7 8700k
    Asus Z370 Prime
    Kingston 2666Mhz DDR4 16GB
    Samsung 850 EVO 500GB
    W10 Pro
    EVGA GTX 1080 SC ACX 3.0

    Edit: Added a screenshot of task manager. I think it's safe to say what causes this at this point... Just like with BF1 the CPU is getting hogged. Right now I am playing on LOW with the "min:latency" setting.
