DCS Crashes to desktop repeatedly, possible "DX11BACKEND"-related

[mickthesaw]

Hi Flappie, I throttle my card to a maximum of 1820 frequency, ran DCS in VR for over an hour last night and not had one crash.

These high clocks that are being used by stock, maybe causing a lot of others to see the DX back end error.?

Good! If this works flawlessly @1800, it's already a victory.

But I have no issue with my card when it reaches 1898 (and it does this every time with DCS, apparently). Maybe you should check temperature/dust/GPU seating/voodoo tricks?

@Flappie Hey, late update but I just finished the final check and it seems to be working perfectly now. My PC had a 400W peak and 300W continuous PSU. I swapped it with a 750W PSU and that seems to have fixed it. I never thought that could be the problem, but I didn't realize it was such a shitty PSU in there. Thanks for your help.

I have the same DX11BACKEND issue reported here Latest update crashing, usually in Controls Menu - Game Crash - ED Forums (eagle.ru) and I don't O/C the GPU or CPU. I don't have SSLR enabled, nor is there anything wrong with my PSU - a new RM850x.

Only a problem in DCS.
