Nvidia cards game crash FIX

[AvX' Dark47Killer]

I have notice some people are having the same issue as me on the forum so I thought I post a tutorial on how to fix it. What mostly happens is that the game works well and after a random amount of time your game will crash and fully freeze, even sometimes crashing your computer. Right before it happens you ram will be used fully.

This issue is commonly known as a memory leak. This memory leak is happening do to two factors, the new game update and NVIDIA Driver 512.95.

How to fix

1. Download 497.29 Driver https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/results/184717/
2. Install the driver over the newer one
3. Open NVIDIA control panel
4. Click on the bottom left "System Information" and make sure it says Driver Version 497.29
5. Enjoy PUBG again

Hope this helps out some users!

We do have the patchnotes already, it got released last week.

You can download the next patch after the maintenance has finished.
