Crashing due to low memory on Win. 8.1 64 bit
My system specs are:
i5-2500K @ 4.5Ghz
GTX 980 (driver version 353.06)
8GB of RAM
Windows 8.1 64bit OS
The Witcher 3 Steam version. I verified my game cache and it was good.
I am running everything on ultra settings, except AA is disabled. Hairworks is enabled. This is how I have ran this game since launch.
I just did a fresh installation of Windows 8.1 yesterday. Before the fresh installation, I had experienced two random crashes on launch day. Now I am running version 1.04 and I keep crashing with an error exclaiming that my memory is too low. I should not be experiencing this issue, and for some reason I am. Not to mention that I have less startup programs, less programs running in the background than I did before. However, on one instance it also crashed ASUS GPU Tweak. Which is something that didn't happen before. I am only able to play for about ten to fifteen minutes before this happens. I am in Velen. I'm using DSR. Previously I could run this game just fine at 4K DSR on my 1920x1080 display. Now the games locks up before the world loads up. I lowered my DSR settings to 2560x1440, but the game just continues to crash. I've gotten rid of the only mod that I was using, which was E3FX.
I've tried a few basic troubleshooting methods, such as completely uninstalling my drivers and reinstalling them, I have tried a few methods in CMD. This is the only game that is giving me issues. I can run all Batman Arkham titles just fine at 4K DSR and Wolfenstein The New Order. These are the only titles that I have installed at the moment. I could test more intense games such Crysis 3, DA:I, and GTAV to name a few.
Any thoughts or reasons as why I am experiencing this particular issue all of a sudden? It'll probably end up being something that is staring me in the face, so to speak, but I'm drawing up blanks at the moment.
