When i play usually after 3-4 mission My PC crash.
Before hive scum update i can play all day without crashing.
I already use HWmonitor to check and there is no problem, maybe temp CPU intel core 17 12700f 75ish celcius. GPU Nvidia geforce rtx 5060 ti 55ish celcius.
Already make everything low, worker thread 2, playing without mod, disable portrait. No overclock.
DDU in safe mode and re install nvidia driver.
Delete Fatshark folder in %appdata% and make steam verify integrity file.

I check event viewer and there is no BSOD, but Fatshark folder for Darktide generating crash report.

I want to know what’s wrong. Thank you for your attention.

Sorry to hear about this. Because Darktide runs in protected memory, it typically wouldn’t be the direct cause of your PC crashing. However, its high resource demands can expose underlying issues that may already exist.

While the problem might only appear when playing Darktide right now, it could eventually occur with other programs as well.

I understand you’ve already looked at the Event Viewer but no errors are produced, which is unfortunate. There are some additional troubleshooting steps you may wish to explore here:
