Hello i recently build a PC and was running fine for the first few months then it started to crash on pretty much all FPS games. I'm getting a DirectX error, see screenshot link below:
the error

I have tried pretty much everything from overclocking / changing the CPU voltage...etc
The drivers are updated and DirectX has been updated / reinstalled.
I have reinstalled Windows
Nothing has been working.

PC Specs
Motherboard: MSI MS-7D78
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700X
GPU: RTX 4060 TI
RAM: 32GB
 
update the Bios of your motherboard

did you try this troubleshooting?
Yes i updated the bios to the latest update. The weird thing is the pc can run for example assetto corsa on max settings easily, but in any type of fps games it crashes right away or after like 5-10 mins

Being it's just not the Black Ops 6 but all games.

As a general go to if games have a Direct-X glitch is to go get the C++ redistributions if Direct-X is up to date.

On a seasoned gaming PC with many games we get these files we need at one point or another some other game will install the files and we never have issues.

But sometimes on a newer PC with fresh Windows and few games we have to go get the required C++'s on our own.

Is this your fix IDK but a path to maybe fixing it if it's the C++'s being the issue.
