The game crashes more frequently on open world locations. The crash happens every ~30 min, sometimes rarer.

Software information

The game runs just fine even on medium/high settings (I have 60-70 fps on open world maps). I tried it on low settings to avoid issues and, unfortunately, it crashes too.
I've never had issues in Warframe on an Intel GPU (Intel HD Graphics 620), but it's a much slower GPU, though. It's barely playable.

I've run many Unreal Engine 4 games on my current GPU, never got a VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST crash.

System information

  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960
  • Driver: 470.86
  • Wine version: wine-7.0-rc1 (Staging)
  • DXVK version: 1.9.2

Looks like NVidia driver issue? Thoughts?

I've bought an extra memory stick (+16GB) and the crashes are gone. Why is that?

@Monsterovich I sadly can't say why it stopped crashing for you.
Has this been true since then?

Yes. I also have replaced by GPU with RTX 3060 ti.

Crashes are probably caused in situations with low amount of video memory, although I don't know why increasing the amount of RAM fixed it. Probably because of the dual channel memory mode.

Nice! gz :grin:
