DX11 Timed out while waiting for GPU to catch up.

[lorenzobenevento]

Hi everyone,
new here. I hope I'm writing in the right section of the forum.
I have some problems with my GPU. It keeps crashing while I run Fortnite (I think is DX11 related).
I'm running it on a clean install to be sure nothing with the system was going on. I alsoo tried to make the graphic card crash, running various suites like 3DMark or Phoroniex on Ubuntu without actually being able of make it crash. I have no clue of what is going on.

I have a Nvidia GTX 960 2GB as GPU and a I7-6700 as CPU.
16 GB of RAM. Tried to run windows on both an SSD and an HDD, and that's it.

Posting a piece of the log:

Maybe it's a fortnite related bug. Send a ticket to epic, it will be more rellevant there.

 

[lorenzobenevento]

Already did it actually! They don't accept ticket from player that doesn't have a paid account!

EDIT: I can clearly post all the log, dump file and so on. Just let me know if someone is able to understand what is going on and I will!

I had the same issues a while ago, and I thought i tried everything to fix it with no luck.

Later I decided to try turning down settings that cause lots of load for the gpu such as anti aliasing in fortnite, and surprisngly it actually worked.
