Not sure whether this is better listed under games or GPUs, but the issue has been driving me crazy.
After launching Ass Creed Origins, somewhere between 1 and about 20 minutes into gameplay, the game constantly crashes. Usually, the music keeps playing, but the screen itself is frozen, with no cursor to move around. If I'm able, I have to use Task Manager to end the AC Origins process to get control of my computer back. When it won't open TM, I have to do a reset.
Now, I've searched all the forums and done all the things that a mid-tech competent person can do, and nothing helps. The one telltale error that (I hope) leads to a solutions is this: In looking at Task Manager after a crash, under the 'Performance' tab, every crash is directly preceeded by two spikes in the 3D graph associated with my 3060ti GPU - the first is usually about 80, then a very brief dip to 0, followed by a quick spike to 100, followed by a quck return to 0, indicating the post-crash value. . I don't know what this is indicative of, but it occurs without fail in these crashes. I might add that aside from these 3D spikes associated with the crash, there seems to be no other 3D activity that preceeds a crash during gameplay.
Yes, all my drivers are up to date (including Nvidia - clean boot of GPU drivers), and the things I've tried are far too long to list.
My rig is a Win 11 Gigabyte Aorus Pro DDR5 Z690 mobo, Intel 12700K CPU, Asus LHR 3060ti OC GPU, 16gb x 2 Kingston Fury DDR 6000 RAM which works fine with XMP profile for everything else, and a Gigabyte G2 850w gold PSU. No component is overclocked by me, it's all factory settings. I have seen this crashing issue, on so many forums, and with so many games (including others playing Ass Creed Origins), with so many supposed 'fixes' that it's so clearly a widespread problem. But none of the fixes proposed has any effect on this problem.
I'm not super-tech savvy, so an 18-step list of technical things isn't going to help me. If someone has an idea that I can carry out, particularly given that suspicious 3D graph spike, I'd be very grateful. Thanks in advance.
