Hey All. I have a GTX660ti.
I downloaded MSIAfterburner and enabled fan curve as suggested by Spleneticflume.
I have played for about 45 mins now without crash, this is the longest time I have been able to play this game. 😕mileyvery-happy:
Thanks Spleneticflume.
To EA: My PC sounds like a tractor and im not ok with that.
*EDIT* - Just crashed, interestingly my mates PC crachsed at EXACTLY the same momemt, same game, same card (he is sitting right next to me).

"EA" isn't here. Not as such. This is Answers HQ, a gamer to gamer Self-Help kind of place.
You may have a higher fan speed than actually required currently selected, and should consult the instructions for MSI Afterburner for further tuning. Whether or not a heat spike is the cause can only be confirmed by obtaining and installing a thermal logging utility and comparing its readings to experience.
I think that with crashes like this, there may be multiple reasons (Sometimes system specific) for them happening. Some folks found underclocking helped, which would also lower the heat produced by the card, so I am definitely thinking there is an issue of heat at the heart of this.
I would suggest making the settings a little steeper than I did? Try to aim towards keeping the GPU at around 60-70C with heavy load. I've lowered my textures to medium now also as I was getting a little bit of a stutter in serious firefights and, frankly, this game is so fast paced I don't even really notice the difference visually. Sure... you can tell when you start staring at the little details but, frankly, you stop for a second and you're a gnat's nad from getting headshot anyway. lol Still no crashes, though. 🙂
Which specific part did you and your mate crash at? I remember there was a specific event that was causing crashes for people but I can't remember what it is and, if I'm honest, I can't be bothered to look it up. lol
Yeh, I'll try again tonight, play with my housemate again and i'll record it. If we crash at the same time again it'll blow my mind.
I cant remember what moment it was or if there was a soecific event that triggered it, it'll be interesting to find out.
goraththeelder: I see. I have no doubt they'll be reading this anyway 😕mileywink:
