Driver for GPU shuts down unpredictably on RTX 3080
Driver for GPU shuts down unpredictably on RTX 3080
Hello, I've noticed this issue for a few days now. My GPU driver frequently crashes during games, causing freezes or quits and showing an error that the driver has failed. This has happened with Overwatch 2 and EA FC 24. I can restart the game without problems. I've used DDU, reinstalled the latest drivers, even rolled back to older versions, but the problem persists. A new error appears when watching on YouTube—full screen toggles freeze Chrome, requiring a task manager exit. An AMD program pops up warning it's in safe mode due to a crashed graphics driver. This only occurs on YouTube with Chrome, not other sites or browsers. Any advice would be appreciated!
Specs: CPU 7900X, Mobo ROG Strix B650E-F, GPU EVGA RTX 3080, RAM 32GB DDR5 (no XMP), PSU CORSAIR 850W, Windows 10 64-bit.
Remove your device driver from ddu and add the NVIDIA driver from the provided link.
It seems the download might have occurred due to your high-resolution setup. I’ve never used an AMD GPU before.
