It’s not true, im playing BFV with DX11 and the only game in my Steam and Orgin account that crash for no reason without any error pop up is BFV. BF1 is still fine.

The fact that there no error pop up in events viewer show that it act as a normal quit than a crash.

Exactly. When i checked event viewer in moment when game close itself there was nothing in event. No app crash,no driver crash. So basically we cant call this crash,but game or origin exited game.  
Also i tried to reproduce this glitch but nothing. I left game again 3 times for 24 hours ( overall 72 hours ) and not quitted. Weird i dont know it happened earlier.

It was not caused by auto voltage on stock 9900k? ( 4.7 ghz )

No, it couldn’t, most of CPU instability will hang or crash the whole computer, not just crashing apps or games. The most important thing is an auto voltage or a stock setting will never crash because of instability.

This issue happened to me too and my 2700X is also at stock, infact this issue happen only with BFV. The first day the Fortress mode was added to the game, BFV crashed 5 times in less than an hour for me, it’s almost 10 minutes each, and then it stop.

Also i hadnt nothing in event viewer. My 9900K is on stock ( 4.7 turbo in game ).  
So it was not related to auto voltage? You said stock will be fine on auto.  
And yeah it happened just once.

Stock setting is designed to simply work, no matter what task. Even when your CPU is too hot it’ll just throttle down to keep the targeted temperature.

My 2700X at stock will sometime go higher than 1.4v just to keep the highest clock and the most stable CPU performance, it shouldn’t crash with that kind of voltage, but yet BFV still crash for no reason.

Playing BF1 with even higher temp (it’s weird but CPU temperature is significantly higher while playing BF1 than BFV), or Stress testing my 2700X with Intel burn test that will make any core to maximum usage with AVX, 83c and 100% CPU load which cause even more heat but everything else are still fine.

So if this is auto voltage and game is avx should be fine?

It should always be fine with everything at stock setting.

Did you check reliability history? Type that into cortana to run it specifically. That’s different than event viewer. It might pick up something you missed. The only other possibility is that origin caused the crash and simply caught the event, preventing it from being logged by the system. Maybe that’s logged somewhere else. Who knows.

Yeah have you run stress tests before on your system? Might not hurt to try and run one for an hour or so when you’re home and not using your PC. Sometimes it can find instability somewhere.

Or maybe it was XMP issue or fluke? I have only XMP enabled. Also i doubt it 🙂

Also Cortana its the same like event viewer. If nothing catched in event viewer in Cortana too. But maybe i will check Cortana to be sure. Also it happened once now i am 80 hour in game and not single crash like that.

I can check REALBENCH for 1 hour to be sure if all is ok , i tried for 15 min and all was fine.

Same here. I have had issues regardless of settings (although everything on low seems to be better but looks awful. The frames are fine, but the game will stutter at the worst times. The best settings I have found is limiting the game to 60 fps and turning FFR on.

I’ll try those settings later. Thanks for the feedback mate.

I have been using FPS limit 60 with FFR off and its better but I face screen tearing.

Vysnc On: Cpu usage goes to 70%. games runs kind of smooth, it is a playable experience, not awsome, just playable and so so enyojable

Vync Off: Cpu usage goes to 100% and a very low GPU usage, games runs like

With Vsync On: I can play game at ultra or high no changes in the consistency of FPS, but yes, some micro sutters here and there, but those have been at my game since march 2019.  
With Vsync Off: No matter the settings, the fps wont pass 110 FPS with terrible FPS drops and stutter very frecuently, the bottleneck begins at this point, don’t know why  
I58400 hexacore  
Rog Strix 2060  
16gb of ram  
Windows 10 may update  
All drivers up to date

This bottleneck issue has been replicated in higher end rigs with 1080ti and I7 8700 and so on. Something is bottlenecking the game with Vsync off. Try to play with Vsync and see the CPU usage with and without that setting. Post results here.

I am sure you guys have checked this already, but I had pretty bad performance the past couple of weeks and it turns out, that BFV switched my graphics settings all by itself to “highest fidelity” which included the witch of future frame rendering, making the game run terrible.

After reverting to my old settings everything runs great again 🙂

See thought it was all down to peoples settings.. I’ve alll ways had vsync on and capped at 117fps and screen set to 120hz gysnc on and no issues with high cpu usage

I didn’t say you have to be playing on DX 12, I’m saying the games that were built on DX 11 but has DX 12 implemented in the game seem to be susceptible of this crashing without notice

But then again, BF1 didn’t have this kind of problem and it used both DX11 and DX12.
