Lowering graphical settings, and running Inquisition at 1920x1080 on only 1 monitor reduces the amount of crashing on my system, but it still happens. Seems like Inquisition is very fragile when it's about to launch a cutscene, my game doesn't crash otherwise, it's just this annoying CTD with the infamous DirectX error.
Hexo...are any of your cards overclocked?? Even factory overclocked?? I have done some some looking around internet and found that most believe this device hung error comes from instability of the GPU memory when the card is overclocked...and thus to fix it, you need to turn it down to the standard level.
No overclocking, just standard EVGA GTX 660. Underclocking is not an option. The problem is at the programming level, perhaps in the Frostbite engine itself. Fortunately, I save a LOT so the only time the crashes were a major headache were some very lengthy cutscenes that had to be repeated a few times and skipped through to make it to the other side. Game only crashed once or twice outside of cutscenes and that's in a 160+ hour game.
No overclocking, and neither from the factory. It's a standard Sapphire HD5870, with medium graphic settings it's running perfectly in games such as Starcraft II, Skyrim, New Vegas and Farcry 4.
I've tried underclocking the GPU to 800MHz and underclocking the GPU memory to 1100MHz, and then running Inquisition in the lowest possible settings, but the DirectX CTD still happens randomly before cutscenes / dialogues, not as often, but still every few hours. When in these low settings I'm running 50-60 fps.
