CS2 Frequent crashes
I have an issue where my game crashes every day no matter what I do or try and it's also on different occasions (but mostly MID GAME)

The crash starts by freezing up my video and then my audio stops, followed by a black screen.
After the black screen the visual and audio returns but my cs2 is broken (basically only the borders of the program and a see-through window to my desktop) and I have to force quit in taskmanager.


I dont have anything overclocked or underclocked

I have tried:

Reinstalling the game (currently on my C drive)
Reinstalling my Shaders
Reinstalling my GPU drivers
Disabling X.M.P.
Antivirus completely disabled.

My PC specs:


AMD Ryzen 9 5900x (CPU)
Gigabyte X570 UD rev 1.0 (MoBo)
XFX Speedster MERC 310 AMD Radeon RX 7900XTX (GPU)
Corsair Vengeange LPX (RAM, 4x8GB)

Any idea? is it just bad optimization?

I experienced the same and also cant find any help to fix this... its obviously the only game that has such problems, since my specs are pretty much over the recommended ones... so I am just not getting why I have to mess around with diffrent settings/instructions/guides to make the game run as intended.

Do you use MSI Afterburner by any chance?

nope, 0 overclocking or 3rd party program using my components, I have bitdefender installed BUT it is turned OFF already and it keeps crashing

This seems to have fixed it (FOR NOW), Was able to stream/play for 3 hours while also having a game on my second screen running and it didnt crash after I tried the fix, will mention if it happens to crash again, but for now, Thanks for the response cause so far seems to have helped!

I know its been a while but have you managed to find a fix? Same thing has been happening to me for a while and I cannot figure out how to fix it.

For me its underclocking GPU, it can run at 3050mhz and i set it to max at like 2900 mhz, havent crashed since

Could differ from you, just make sure your Chipset drivers, Motherboard BIOS and GPU drivers are up to date, and what COULD also help is setting the Texture Filtering Mode to 4x or lower, there tend to be issues on 8x

Good luck!
