Freezing DX12
With Direct X 12 enabled I noticed the game freezes every so often for a few seconds which seems like its random. When I go into spectator mode it is so choppy to the point it crashes the game. I'm t...

CPU: 6800k OCed @ 4.0 GHz (stable)
MB: ROG Rampage V Extreme (latest bios)
CPU Cooler - Hydro Series H115i
RAM: Corsair Dominator platinum 32GB (3200MHz)
GPU:Gainward RTX 2080 Phantom GLH Edition (not OCed)
Even though i have Geforce experience installed i never run it.
I also had these crashes that a lot of people are complaining about (not those related to DX12,the other type where your game would randomly freeze and bring you back to desktop) but i fixed it by tweaking some of my secondary and tertiary timings on my RAM.It never crashed since.
IMO,it's also the game's fault,by design it's so demanding and unstable,that bring the rigs to their knees.For example one of my clan mates had to raise the voltage of his cpu in order to fix the crashes.He didn't have any problems with other AAA games like Assassin's creed odyssey or ,the latest tomb raider,or even with bf1 and bf4,only with bfv!
Now back to the DX12.TBH,last time i used DX12 was back in December and i have had some performance drop (less fps-minor stuttering) respect to DX11.I changed back to DX11 and never tried DX12 since.
In game my video settings are set to high with DX11.
Actually a couple of hours ago i had this discussion withanother of my clan mates.He is having a 2070 with DX12 and told me that i should try it as it doesn't have issues anymore.i will try it and i'll let you know how it is.
@SnakeEyesPC Nice rig you have great taste in MB and ram :] 6 core 12 threads should be no issue with DX12.Let me know how it works when you test DX12. Edit make sure you turn off DXR in BFV in advanced video settings.
I have your MB and ram in my other rig until today we just changed out the MB to the Rampage V 10 edition :/ long story :/ So now I am going to go set it up as the husband needs it to game on until his build is done.
Hey @2042isNotBF switched,as i told you,to DX12 and had no issues at all! I guess since the last time i tried DX12 the drivers got better and i have no stutters!I can't say for sure if i have had less FPS cause are more or less the same as they were with DX11.
Yes,no DXR in multiplayer!I will enable it when i'll play the campaign for some eye candy.
I'm more than happy with the performance of my setup but i was thinking in upgrading to the i9 9900k. Since you have the 9900k,would you recommend me the upgrade,will i see any big performance differences from the 6800k?
@SnakeEyesPC Nice happy DX12 works for you correct.
I have the I9 - 9900K and from my i7-5960X yes a difference but once I got my ram at its correct speeds 4266Mhz and put in the ROG Strix OC 2080 Ti it made a huge difference.
On my 144HRz 40 inch screen on med settings and 2 settings on ultra I get 170 - 200Fps in BFV and I stay more near 200FPS for my screen size this is amazing to me.
I love the Maximus XI Extreme MB but some changes in Bios with XMP.. xmp 1, xmp2 for my ram XMP2 should work lol not so far. I could not get my ram on its speeds and yes it's in the QVL. I tried so many different bios it was crazy :/ It was not until I went all the way back to bios 602 think I put down bios 603 but its bios 602 I am on. Anyway once on 602 I got my ram at 4266 on manual settings, XMP 1 or XMP2 was a no go for me was not stable at all :/ .
It was not a fun build to set up and many people on ROG site still use bios 602 to have things stable with the OC . Was this build worth it now yes but the first 4 weeks I was smashing my head so mad XMP was a no go not stable and so much ram testing with karhu ram test paid for... best 20 bucks ever spent for a program to test ram. I also had issues on the new build from first start up DP cable would not work I had to put a HDMI cable on for the first bit until things got set up in bios and windows and never had this in the past with any build , new gen gear new issues :/ lol
So my point is if you go down this road what I said is a heads up you could run into some fun times setting her up. When all is said and done best rig ever but a huge pain to get stable with ram and my screen #$%!! that was a full on well I can't say the words on AHQ but you get the idea.
@2042isNotBFI was thinking in keeping the RAM's i already have (32 gb @3200mhz) and upgrading the rest,cpu and MB.Do you think i will also need faster memories?i was hoping that the corsairs i already got could keep up and support nicely the 9900k.
For a mb i was thinking in buying the rog maximus XI Code,like her looks! 🙂
