I've been dealing with a really frustrating issue while playing Fortnite. Since the start of last season, the game keeps freezing my entire computer whenever I try to play. I've tried a bunch of solutions, like verifying game files, uninstalling and reinstalling Fortnite, switching to performance mode, updating my graphics drivers, checking my RAM, restarting my PC, updating the BIOS, and even doing a full reset. Unfortunately, nothing seems to help, and I'm at my wit's end. Here are my PC specs for reference:
- Motherboard: Gigabyte B650
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600x
- GPU: Nvidia RTX 3060
- RAM: 48GB of DDR5
- OS: Windows 11 Pro
Can anyone suggest what I might try next? I really want to get back to playing Fortnite!

Have you checked if the freezing happens with other games too? It might help to narrow down the issue. Sometimes specific games can have unique problems due to the way they run or interact with hardware. If it's mostly just Fortnite, then there could be a bug or a specific issue with your setup.
Yeah, it's only happening in Fortnite. Each time I ask for help in the Fortnite subreddit, nobody seems to respond, which is super frustrating.
