AM4 AGESA V2 PI 1.2.0.3 Patch C Seems to Cause Crashes on DCS Open Beta 2.7

[RiskyShift]

Bios versions featuring AMD AM4 AGESA V2 PI 1.2.0.3 Patch C for ryzen 5000 series causes crashes on the beta. Even with fresh windows 10 install and no other software or overclock. Game always crashes within 5 to 10 minutes. Currently using Patch A and no issues. As of now, repeated attempts to join a server net success, however when joining a server i havent played before, the game crashes. As of now, If i do happen to make it into a server, i only last about 30 to 40 minutes before crash, however that is not constant. Maybe 2 out of 10 times. I have included a video of this happening. The issue seems to have evolved over time. On September 17, I could play for a few minutes with then crash. Every time I played. This was the case until Yesterdays update to the open beta. Now the game seems to crash then the visualizer starts, or when it is downloading the mission. I should note outside of setting Ram speed to 3606mhz with DOCP, and enabling virtualization along side amds already included PBO )precision boost overdrive, no other significant changes have been made in the bios. Bios used in video is most recent for ROG Strix X570-F Gaming (4021) paired with Ryzen 7 5800x.

Can we ask you to try something.

Rename your dcs open beta folder in your saved games location ( keep it as a backup )

Then run a slow repair on DCS 

after the repair restart, a new folder will be created, login and test

Let us know if you still see the crash and attach the new dcs log

thank you

Have you tried with RAM at default xmp values? 

this latest dcs.log shows a display driver crash

after a few hours of testing i have come to the conclusion that manually decreasing the clock speed of the gpu by about 8% gets me stable results. I have no idea if that is a result of a small bug, or faulty gpu.

You wont be the first to notice this, others have also found more stability with a reduced clock. Good to hear you can play now, thanks for letting me know

I'm also getting consistant crashes with XMP enabled.  Turn it off and there is no problems at all.  I have an I7 11700K and AMD 6800XT GPU.

No crashes at all here, my motherboard is an Asus ROG Strix X570-F and BIOS 4021.
