Black Screen crash

[Furaxis]

So ive been playing with a buddy and my game runs flawlessly (4070ti). He can run Ashen fine no issues, but on scorched earth and the one super urban map he hard crashes with 1-3 minutes of starting the map. He says he has no lag, no graphical glitches just cut to black screen and some times it will lock up his pc. He says he hears the music fine still playing while starring at a black screen. He has a 3080ti.

I had this today,, starts off as intermittent black line glitches then the display driver crashes. On my 3060 Ti I nailed / linked it down to turning DLSS on, turned it off and restarted no more glitchy lines and no more driver crashes

[UPDATE]
So friend had a diagnostic open and he saw his gpu go to no mhz during a crash, so his gpu definitely stopped and rebooted

Yeah driver crash, recovers maybe a couple of times then gives up requiring pushing the power button to shutdown, today was the first time I'd experienced it tbh and I've had DLSS on before too, had me worried thinking my GPU is roasting, on the way out or something but nah nothing wrong with it
