July Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) Attached below are the logs, crashes all seem similar in circumstance. Edit: I am currently running NVIDIA driver 472.12 with a 1080 Ti. My Windows 10 is also up to date. My CPU/GPU are not running custom overclocks, only boost clocks from the default. dcs.20211003-130841.log dcs.20211003-135509.log dcs.20211005-121002.log dxdiag.txt Edited October 5, 2021 by July
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted October 5, 2021 ED Team Posted October 5, 2021 Hi your crash points to your display driver EDCORE: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\d3d11.dll are you over clocking your card or does it have a factory overclock? is the display driver up to date?

July Posted October 5, 2021 Author Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) The display driver is up to date, NVIDIA driver 472.12 (9/20/2021). The card as far as I know, is not overclocked and is only running on its default boost clock as shown in MSi afterburner. Edited October 5, 2021 by July
Hiob Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 try to lower your boost freq and max power (90%) anyway. Some cards have poor thermal pads contact and spikes in load can cause crashes. Could even happen only in certain scenarios. If the card keeps crashing with those reduced settings, you have at least (mostly) ruled out one common problem. (you could also raise the voltage slightly, there is nothing to break in afterburner!) "Muß ich denn jedes Mal, wenn ich sauge oder saugblase den Schlauchstecker in die Schlauchnut schieben?"
July Posted October 5, 2021 Author Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) So far, so good. Lowering both the power limit and the core clock by -10%/-100Mhz has seemed to work. My GPU max temps get to around 76C so I think I can leave the power limit at 100%. The card was boosting itself to 2000Mhz under high loads which could've been the source of the instability so underclocking it seems to work. If I have another crash, then I will post the log here once again. Edited October 5, 2021 by July
Hiob Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) Make sure you have good airflow. When in doubt leave open the side panel and see if you get significant lower temps. btw. search on youtube for undervolting nvidia cards. you may end up with lower temps and higher performance.

July Posted November 5, 2021 Author Posted November 5, 2021 Bump, I've been getting a few more crashes lately, less frequent but similar in the way the crash happens. Logs below, help appreciated dcs.log-20211105-015320.zip dcs.log-20211104-151459.zip dcs.20211031-160824.log
Sn8ke Posted November 5, 2021 Posted November 5, 2021 Been getting a lot of CTDs as well, most current nvidia drivers. My guess, driver related. Asus Prime Gaming Wifi7 // Intel 14900K @5.5GHz // 64Gb DDR5 6000MHz // 3090 RTX // 4TB Samsung NVME M.2
