Hello I'm a very avid gamer and I have recently had a problem where my game crashes with the error "Rendering device lost" and its been progressively getting worse and worse to the point where the crashes crash my entire system and I've tried everything from looking on the internet and contacting blizzard directly for help and the only solution I haven't tried was replacing parts for a PC I made fry's build for me. Please Help me Overwatch is my favorite game and I'm on the verge to just give up on gaming as a whole because I can't play the only game I genuinely spent over 1000 hours on.


My build:
16 GB of ram
rx 460 (not overclocked)
amd fx-8350 (overclocked by 200mHz)
gaming 970 motherboard
750 Watt evga gold power supply
