BF1 Directx crash

MrAlbertrocks · January 3, 2017

It started this week, every day, each time i launch BF1 for the first time OF THE DAY, i play for about 10-20 minutes and it crashes. The message says it was a directx error. I don't know what the hell is causing it, and it is really weird since it only happens once a day. After i reboot the game, it never crashes again in the same day.

Are you playing in DX12 mode? I don't play BF1 but I've heard DX11 is much more stable.

No, i play in DX11 mode. Origin however for some reason runs in a Windows compatibility mode. I've tried everything, i can't get it to run normally. But i doubt that's the problem since Origin has been running on that mode for half a year, and the crashes started this week.

I'm not really sure then, maybe one of your system components is unstable (power supply or graphics card probably). Have you been overclocking?

Actually, i overclocked my GPU, and just the day after, the crashes started happening. Now, a simple culprit would be the overclock, but i've stress my system AFTER the overclock with heaven benchmark, 3dmark, Witcher 3, Batman arkham knight and League of Legends. All the way from 20% usage to 100% gpu usage. I didn't experience anything weird. While playing BF1, i don't see any artifact, which leads me to believe it's the Memory overclock that's causing the problem. I turned it down from +500mhz to 400mhz, and the problems were still there.
