We tried installing the same gpu, with a variety of drivers but the crashes remained, same with other gpu’s, new ram, installing ue4 on a new ssd, to the point where we had two computers next to each other running the elemental demo (trust me, ive seen elemental demo so often I can pinpoint all the mistakes and oddities in that thing with my eyes closed) and only this rig is crashing.
(Note, other computer wasnt a 1:1 of my own rig, as not all hardware was available in the store)
The last thing we tested was to swap out my M.2. SSD (which has a clean win10 install + latest updates) and place another one in, with a fresh installed win7 with all updates.
no crashes.
but after formatting that new M.2. and installing win10 + all updates, the crashes started once more untill the gpu was downclocked to 70% of its power again.
so… the closest to a definitive answer we can get is “Any ue4, plus Win10, plus potentially a 1:1 setup of my hardware & their (close to) latest drivers”
I just hope that by the time I get my hands on a 1080TI, the right win10 drivers have been updated and that this joke of a clusterbleep stops crashing my rig.
