Crashes? in 2024? with a 4080?

[PorchBandit]

Hey all, hoping there's somebody out there that might have an insight on this.

I'm running 64gb RAM an i9 Raptor Lake and an RTX4080 and still for some inexplicable reason RDR2 seems to crash constantly. It's usually stable for a good 20min sometimes 40min but it seems to, without fail, crash me out of missions.

Sometimes it makes total sense and will crash while I abuse the crap out of Rampage, Fair enough, spawning a bunch of legendary sturgeon in an enemy camp and turning the tornado on probably won't be stable on a twelvty80. But this frequency of crashes with very few mods in regular gameplay just doesn't make sense.

I recently installed all the drivers and performance programs from the manufacturer of my motherboard and GPU, Which I'm realising was silly not to do a few months back when I put the computer together but hopefully that will help although I have ALL the required Nvidia drivers updated already.

If anybody has any other suggestions I'd love to hear them, the game seems to use ALLOT of CPU but the GPU usage seems to be normal. I've been considering undervolting my CPU to see if that helps. I realize it's a slightly older game and I've heard some older games get all screwy on newer more powerful GPUs but for rockstar to no future proof their game seems kinda crazy

Not always. DX12 option doesn't seem very stable on the RTX GPUs, but stable on the GTX GPUs; which honestly doesn't make much sense.

Can't use dx12 for nmore than 5 mins on my system and i have rtx 4080. Vulkan never a crash.

And yes 13900 and 14900 and probably 14700 having issues in tons of games. My 13600kf no issues at all. Well unless i try to overclock it then all hell breaks loose. Some are cpu issues that can be RMAed. Some are just too aggressive settings in motherboard bioses. ASUS, MSI and Gigabyte specifically. And that includes my Gigabyte Aorus Z790. But with my cpu it's fine at stock speeds. xmp is on, hyperthreading on, all cores active, a slight overclock as well.

When you go to try DX12, apply the change, then exit the game.

Then wipe all the gpu shader cache for the OS and Game.

Set NVIDIA Shader Cache to 10GB or more.

for all asking, the game was barely stable without mods and tended to perform for a few minutes longer, and I'm probably being generous because my memory of how long isn't great. I've got it stable now, with even more mods, so clearly it wasn't the mods. I think one thing that helped was enabling XMP and running the game in economy mode in task manager.

EVEN still. there's apparently a known issue with rockstars engine where the game will ALWAYS start to stutter when it breaches 144fps. I can handle a few stutters and tbh I don't expect to play RDR2 on ultra in 2k at 165hz but it doesn't seem like there's an actual FPS cap in the game setting and it is disappointing how much Rockstar seems to not care about PC players. Especially now consoles seem to be on their inevitable march into obscurity and even when RDR2 came out PC gaming was huge.

I used to always crash with dx12 and played on vulkan
now I always crash with vulkan and never with dx12.

I have been in contact with Rockstar support for about 1½ months where they try do say different excuses, everything from other applications, outdated drivers, devices being plugged in etc, I used to crash after 5 mins of gameplay, they told me to turn off XBox Gamebar, that fixed the issue to the point where I can play around 40-45mins.

The game only crashes for me on 2070 when there are hackers in the lobby. Mods and hacks bugs out the game plus modders and cheaters are crashing the game on people for ♥♥♥♥♥ and giggles. When there are modders or hackers on the lobby the moon shack bugs out. It's not r*'s fault at all. I seen modders wipe out a whole lobby last night by some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ crashing the game on people just for laughs. Every person I see looting hacker box get's banned because they are never seen again. Modders and hackers are there solely to grief people. By one getting them banned by looting a box or two to crash people and cyber bully people for laughs. My guess is the GTA lobbies are not as fun for them anymore? I haven't checked yet.

If you loot a box thinking it is for easy money? You will be banned.
Modders are just there to crash people and harass people just like they did in GTA back in the day. Like spamming explosions to crashing people's games.

It amazes me that these game companies are more focused on politics and insert agenda here then fixing their actual bugs and games to prevent this abuse of their player base. All I can say is based on how RDR online and GTA online went and is currently GTA 6 will be a absolute ♥♥♥♥ show out of the gate and a decade beyond.

I refuse to play RDO lol. For that reason and because even without hackers it's the same toxic wasteland as GTAO on top of being ridiculously grindy on purpose to shove MTxs down your throat. There's a reason why the RP servers got so popular, And because Rockstar wasn't making money off of them, a reason why they bought up the people enabling RP servers to exist.

RDO does have plenty of good Posses and legit players. It's not nearly as toxic as GTAO as long as you can find sessions without cheaters since it's not just the cheating but the crashes it can cause that's annoying more then anything. But there are plenty of gatherings of legit RDO players online; Reddit, Steam, Discord and such you can find and link up with and then join various private sessions in order to play without the worry of cheaters.

RP servers through RedM initially was done for the simple fact that it's quite easy to get bored for many players in RDO as you run out of stuff to do, spend money on, etc. Although it's not that hard to obtain money and gold in RDO after the Blood Money and Roles updates came out to where you really do not need to pay real money to obtain Gold. But RP servers via RedM also allows for various Modded changes server-side for a unique RDO experience and also have some realism to the game as well.

Every game can be a grind of sorts. That's generally a given in order to keep things rolling. You can role play within normal vanilla RDO if you link up with good people.
