Hey everyone, I've been having a frustrating issue where games on my PC keep crashing. It started out as a minor problem, but it's been getting progressively worse over time. Especially with Unreal Engine games, they typically crash within 30 minutes. I recently bought FC26, and I can't even finish a single game without it crashing, and there are no error messages at all. Interestingly, some games, like League of Legends, run just fine with no crashes. I've tried a bunch of troubleshooting steps: I reinstalled Windows, ran tests on my CPU, GPU, and RAM, and even updated my BIOS to the latest version. Everything checks out, so I'm really out of ideas. Any suggestions on what I should try next? Here are my specs:
- CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700KF (3.40 GHz)
- MB: GIGABYTE Z790 AORUS ELITE AX
- RAM: Corsair DIMM 64 GB DDR5-5200 Kit
- GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 4070 Ti GAMING X TRIO 12G
- OS: Windows 11
Thanks a ton for any help!

It’s not often that the hardware is the issue, but sometimes software conflicts can cause crashes. I’d suggest reinstalling any Intel or AMD drivers you're using. You might be surprised how often those can mess things up.
Make sure to check the recommended hardware requirements for your games before installation, rather than just the minimum specs. Sometimes, the game might not run well even if you meet the minimums.
Are you serious? That's really the advice you have?
I'm not quite sure which software you’re referring to. Can you give me more specifics?
