Hello, I have been having this issue for a while and have tried on my own to find a fix for it but I still have not. The issue Ive been having is in games, no matter what game it is, it will crash by either freezing with sound continuing, or throwing an error on the screen and returning to desktop. I then have to restart the game and will most likely get the error again, but this isn't 100% of the time, just most of the time. If I keep restarting whatever game I'm trying to play over and over again eventually it will just start working and will run fine no problems. Some examples of the error occurring are in Minecraft the game just freezes and I have to force close it, in OVerwatch I get an error that says your rendering device has been lost, and in FFXIV I get a popup saying fatal direct X error 11000002.
Things I have tried to fix this are, upgrading PSU, RMA GPU, new RAM, new MOBO, basically rebuilding the PC, reinstalling Windows, updating Bios, updating all drivers, and many other fixes. Any help would be appreciated.
Specs:
Motherboard: B450 Tomahawk
GPU: GTX 1080
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
RAM: Corsair ddr4 16gb
PSU: Corsair CX650M 650watts
If I forgot anything let me know.
