Your log is spammed with GPU related issues, see examples below. I've dopped your log file in the DCS log analyzer which has also confirmed this.

There is a GPU-related error

• Remove any overclocking from your GPU. Note, some GPUs come with a factory overclock so you use MSI Afterburner to confirm this.
• Uninstall your GPU driver with DDU and install a clean one.

2025-04-26 20:09:42.395 ERROR   DX11BACKEND (2872): DX device removed. Reason: 0x887A0005
2025-04-26 20:09:42.398 ERROR   DX11BACKEND (2872): Can't map structured buffer.

The DxDiag report also shows the following:

Application Errors

• DCS.exe: c00000fd (edCore.dll), c0000005 (Scene.dll), was hung for 58.12s and killed
• VPforce-TelemFFB.exe: c0000005 (python311.dll) svchost.exe_FontCache: c0000005 (fntcache.dll)
• NVIDIA App.exe: was hung for 30.65s and killed, c0000005 (libcef.dll)

Memory Timing Issues

• Remove any overclocking (XMP) from your RAM.

 

Additional tuning tips from the log analyzer:

• Remove the OH6GunnerExport script for performance reasons.
• Enable Full Screen mode.
• Disable Tacview for performance reasons.

 

Side note. You might want to turn off auto-updates for your Meta link software and headset. The latest Meta v72 release is known to be causing crashes for some users on Meta link.
