D3D device removed error
GTX 780Ti 4GB shouldnt be having this trouble. can play any other game on Ultra even if I lower down to High I still get a crash and I can see i have 200mb of vram left. Is there going to be a fix for this? or I am refunding this.

With your system setup, I would say better refund this or get a proper setup.

You cant be serious my system is more than capable to run this game at max settings, can play all other games I own on max only this game seems to be an issue. I have even read people with 1080Ti are having the same issue so your point in invalid.

Well, review your settings on NVIDIA control panel then. BTW, I am serious . . . you said yourself you have 200MB vram left, you are running on the edge of your system. So, either you want to troll or you have no clue what you are talking about. Anyway, I'd check the NVIDIA control panel options and one solution can be selecing your GPU as processor.

Cap the FPS and you'll be fine

Cap it at 60 and the game won't crash anymore

Same problem since last patch.

I have turn all settings on low and still get the same crash error, have turned on vsync which actually made it better and could do about 2-3 laps then it crashed.

Do you have a Ti series graphics card?
NicoproF1 Sep 3, 2017 @ 12:58pm 
Nope, GTX 980.

I solved my problem by checking my motherboard cables. So, i think i didn't have the same problem...

Refusing to give specs won't get you anywhere with technical issues.

Don't know why people do that. My guess is either too proud, too "cool" or just dumb.

I didn't refuse to give spec's, I said I refuse to believe the issue is with my specs.

Bro your card is fine the problem is the NVidia driver even I had the same issue. You need to uninstall your display driver completely and then install it using windows update, let windows update find the driver and install it automatically. Don't forget to uninstall all the other NVidia components like PhysX and stuff. I know its odd and ridiculous basically its the same driver but when you manually install it as suggested by NVIDIA it shows that D3D error. Why these developers make life difficult for us? Anyway I figured this out after installing and reinstalling win 10 at least 7 times. If you found any other solution to this please let me know.

Okay, thanks I will try this out.

Don't do it that way, it'll download the latest driver that Windows update has in its system which is usually from about 6 months ago. Download the latest version of DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) from the authors website and make sure you have the latest driver. Also because DDU removes the driver in safe mode, if you're using Windows 10 make sure you have a password as the PIN doesn't work. DDU should automatically turn off latest driver install from Windows Update but if it doesn't, remove any and all network cables/turn off Wifi.

After you've done that, go through the driver setup and when it comes to choosing between express and custom.. click custom and untick all components except PhysX. Restart your computer after the installation and it should all be okay.

If it isn't then it could be one of these.. you have an overclock on the GPU that is unstable, this applies to the core and memory clocks. My 1080Ti would run perfectly fine at 1949Mhz but not at 1974Mhz and secondly, the game could see you as having too little VRAM even if you have some spare (Ideally 200MB's spare isn't nearly enough) but if it is doing the same at lower settings, it would suggest either the driver itself wasn't installed properly or your GPU is having difficulty with stability. If it fails again, re-run DDU a couple of times to make sure it cleans it out properly and then reinstall it but leave the setup on express and try it from there.

Hope that helps :)
