Gears 5 PC crashing

I have Ryzen 3600/Radeon RX5700., was able to play game till 2 weeks back. Now after launching the game when I click campaign or benchmark or anything the game freezes and windows task manager shows as game not responding.

I have all the latest windows and graphics driver update.

I did the same but still crashes, even if I close the game and be on desktop, it freezes Windows forcing me to hard reboot.

I’m sharing my post

But If I’m the only dude who do it, is impossible to make a difference and I’ll be ignored.
Posting and posting the issues here is also useless.

I’m with you on that.
This is the worse game I’ve ever seen coding wise.
For me, it’s unplayable. I can play from 1 minute to 4 minutes randomly since getting to act 3 and maybe since last update.
I’ve done all, reinstall windows 10, reset BIOS, reset everything to default, remove sound card, the game is STILL crashing randomly.
Anyway, a company is worth what its customer service is, in this case 0.
Not one answer to our concern.

P.S also, it’s the only game on my RIG that’s causing problem, Every other game run great, even GoW 4 !

I have no crashes on other games or other apps on any Nv driver.

With Gears 5 on 10xx card its 100% repeatable on 436.30 or above (freeze and video lost on COG splash screen)

I accept games launch with bugs - but this is a fatal crash still there after a month and no mention in official release notes

NV are only interested in RTX games and selling new cards with ray-tracing etc - and all the game websites dare not make a fuss on our behalf either

mine doesn’t crash but the framerates go as low as 3-4 fps when on multiplayer, have the latest driver on a gtx 1070, not always but i’ve seen it twice today…

I have the same problem since ACT 3: Some Assembly. FPS drops rapidly and computer locks up. ACT I and II works perfectly fine.

Make social pressure is the answer. Even I’m sharing (spamming if you want) my Post explaining the issues, sharing It on Twitter accounts of Rod Fergusson, Phil Spencer and TCOctus, Do the same as Batman Arkham Knight issues when the players didn’t shut up until the game was barely fixed, is funny how that Batman Arkham Knight doesn’t cause freezes, crashes or bsod, I almost finished It the achievements, It only stutters randomly but doesn’t causes BSOD. But the game magazines and press are quiet with Gears 5. Shameful.

I’m at the end of act 3, the game was working perfectly until yesterday. Now when it finishes loading the game runs at 0.1fps and i have to wait like 3 minutes just to get a single new frame on screen. And then my computer freezes forcing me to pull the power out to restart it.
I have an i5 4690k , gtx 9604gb and 20gb of ddr3 ram.

well for me the game run smooth on ultra 100 avr fps until i play versus or ranked (the only modes ive tried) for lets say 15 minutes (sometimes much more) and then the game stop responding mostly in the stage right after loading map and synchronizing connection on the validating match. it stays on this screen with audio. and in the task manager gears 5 not responding and i end task.
also sometimes the sound glitch to a zzz sound. (external sound card focusrite) so i uplug and plug back the usb cable and soung go back to normal.
at the moment im suspended from matchmaking due to the quitting
pleaz post fixes

Did you manage to fix it yet?

CPU: I7-9750 2.6 ghz
GPU: Geforce GTX 1660 TI
Graphics Driver: 441.66

Game is unplayable. I’m being booted in horde mode within 5 minutes of joining any match.

Work here bro, thanks.
I created a topic about it, and put your tip there.

I fixed this issue by restarting the game from the act. I think the save game became corrupted

Worked like a charm :100: Thx a lot man :facepunch:

Hey guys,
Ryzen 3900x
x570 Aorus Master
32gb ram 3600
GTX 1070 Ti

Can’t play this game for more than 10 min before it crashes. Any fix for this? Is Microsoft going to release a patch to fix this?

EDIT: Finally fixed it. It was the RAM speed. I entered the bios and set my RAM to it’s default speed (around 2100) which is a lot less then what it can do (3600-3500). My advice is this: if you want this game to run, make sure you have latest drivers installed and everything runs at stock speeds without any kind of OC. That goes for cpu, memory, gpu and anything else you can think of i guess. This game has problems and it doesn’t look like they are going away but at least i can finally enjoy the game i paid for. I hope this helped someone going crazy trying to run this game without crashes.

Hi,

I searched forever online to find a fix and tried everything nothing worked. As a matter of fact, there is nothing wrong with the game on windows 10.

I finally found a solution to the problem by luckily trying to run the game without MSI afterburner in the background. This fixed the problem. After researching a bit, there was nothing wrong with the MSI afterburner, but it is the Rivatuner that runs with it. After disabling the rivatuner this problem is no longer, even with the msi afterburner running.

Regards
