12th Gen Intel BSOD Watchdog Fix!!!
Hello All! If you're still looking for a fix, I have currently found one that has left the game running and played a handful of matches for 288 hours.

The way I fixed was specifically looking for my BIOS version and updating, updating intel drivers from the link below. This is an UE 5 issue NOT Smite the last patch however triggered the bug to occur for me, since I have downloaded the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility and disabled "Turbo Boost Short Power Max" I have not had a crash since. Please find link to the UE 5 forum discussing this specific error and a proposed fix.

Note: this is on an Acer Nitro 5 LAPTOP - I do not have access on this system to the actual clock speed so disabling was the only thing I was able to do! I hope this helps at least one person! GLHF!

yeah it's been happening to me since last patch, super frustrating! Have left the game on all day, 610 minutes and no crashes so far!

This unfortunately didn't work for me. This only bought me an extra 20mins before the first crash

I updated my BIOS and that appears to have resolved the issue for me so far (played 2 arena games and 4 conquest with no crashes). I have commented this in a few related threads.

Same processor though, Intel 12th gen.

Did you already update your BIOS?
