I've found myself playing this game on SteamDeck rather than my PC due to it crashing sometimes within just 5 minutes of use, sometimes it might take days before it crashes. It could sometimes be performing excellent weeks.
Tried tuning up power settings, putting maximum processor power output to 50% might have worked slightly but still occurs so I doubts it's processor.
When PC crashes, my screen usually freezes, sound usually gets stuck in BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ or something, but if I have YouTube playing on background, it usually produces audio during freeze just fine until it stops I guess from not having any more video downloaded into the computer memory.
I think problems might've increased since last NVIDIA update so might be related to GPU, thoughts? Tried putting -100 in all settings in MSI Afterburner but seems still crash, so maybe it's not GPU either, though it seems it might be graphics related since the screen freeze?
Happened first with Elden Ring, before that I think I had crash free computer. Problems might've gotten slightly more severe since update to windows 11, but like I said problems still existed.
Cleaned out fans last summer and PC is like 3.5 years old by now. I check my PC temperatures and CPU/GPU never go above 90 degrees C.
Thoughts?
