I just bought an RTX 2060 yesterday after my five-year-old GTX 760 kicked the bucket. I was very excited so I installed it, I updated the drivers, got all my monitors plugged in and the computer started no problem. Then this morning I was playing Overwatch like I usually do and my computer crashed and then restarted. Now every time I start up Overwatch the PC crashes. I tested some other games including Rocket League, StarCraft 2, Subnautica, Planetside 2, and of course Overwatch. The only games I had any instability with was Overwatch and Subnautica I even managed to get into Overwatch long enough to tun down the graphics settings and that made no difference.

Current specs are i5 4670K, 8GB DDR3, Crucial 120GB SSD, WD Blue 1 TB, RTX 2060 EVGA XC Black.

As Crunken said DDU is really good, but i think the RTX drivers are abit faulty aswell. I dont know if it is my Gigabyte Aorus 2060 or if its Dota2 but the game does crash at random times. Normally when a game crashes i check my OC and downclock it. 

I have +80mhz on the clock and +800 on the memory stable in benchmarks and stresstests but games are a different story. 
So i think there is some compatibility issues with the drivers atm.

Yeah, I just used DDU and reinstalled the Drivers that way but after starting Overwatch it crashed again so I think I am going to try and downclock it as well. I'll see if that makes a difference. I guess I just have to wait for Nvidia to make decent drivers for this thing. What would you recommend for a downclock on the memory and the GPU?

I ended up slightly underclocking it and it mostly worked. I only did that after I used DDU and got the same crashing so it mostly works now. Thanks for the help though
