Re: Dragon Age Inquisition; Black screen into a force restart (quad core)

Wow, I guess I jinxed myself. Just played for about an hour and get a black screen reset, with AO set to SSAO. Might have to lower some other settings as Reinsol has done. It's a weird reset too, because I hear music for about 10 seconds after the screen goes black, then my computer is non-responsive. If I just hit the reset button on my comp though, it won't come back up. I have to do a hard power button shut down, wait a few seconds and reset to start back up. It's almost like something overheated, but I've monitored temps and nothing is significantly high.

Oh, and the reset was at a rift. I'm not sure why, but I seem to get the resets at a MUCH higher rate when I'm at rifts with the little cloaked screaming demons that shield themselves and fly across the battlefield (don't know the name, but they are less common, only high level rifts).

    Yeah. I ended up dropping all my settings from ultra to high, except for hbao+. Hasn't crashed since, almost looks better too. Still it would be nice to get the most out of the 970. But so far no crash at high settings with hbao+.
