1080 Ti Consistent Crashes

[Votivee]

I have tried a lot of things to try and fix this, so I'll try and avoid a wall of text the best I can.

 

What's Happening

GPU Crashes after a few minutes of gameplay, only on certain games

 

Games that crash:

• BeamNG
• NFS Heat
• Total War Warhammer II
• Motorsport Manager
• Wreckfest

 

BeamNG Crash

 

NFS Heat Crash

 

 

Relevant System Specs

5820k @ 4.3GHz (It's been clocked like this for years, nothing has changed)

1080 Ti FTW3, no overclock other than factory

RM750w PSU

MSI X99S Krait Motherboard

32GB Corsair Vengeance

 

What I've Tried

DDU and reinstall

Complete reinstall of Windows

Rolling back drivers

Maxing Fans out

Decreasing GPU power limit

 

What I have not tried

Removing CPU OC

 

Other Notes

Does not crash during stress testing (Furmark)

Does not crash on other games like R6 Siege

Does not crash on programs like blender

System has had no changes, just randomly started happening about two months ago

Try running it in debug mode.

I had to use it with Gigabyte GTX 1080 Xtreme on the games to avoid getting those types of messages.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. It ran fine for the first 8-10 months of ownership. Not sure what would have changed.

No cigar, still getting the same result. Thanks for the suggestion though

Try changing the thermal paste. My 1080 ti was crashing while playing borderlands 3 after a few months. Changed the thermal paste and all was good again.

Only thing I can think of is that it's just those certain games. Best you can do is look up the errors for those games and try fixes.

Is it vertically mounted? 
was it used when you got it?

how old is the PSU?

Hey! Good questions!

- No

- Yeah, but I was using it to play the same games with no issues for months before issues started appearing. It still has a warranty on it, just trying to determine if it's the actual card or something else.

- Around 5 years. However, if it's a PSU issue I'd think that I would be having problems while stress testing, which I'm not.

I think you may be having problems with Directx based on googling your errors

d3d11.dll crashes

 

So you may want to try this

I followed through with that second link and that seems to have fixed my problems. I applied it on Monday and have not had a crash since.

 

I appreciate the help!
