Issue Type (Required):

Crash - During Play

Issue Description (Required):

I’m experiencing random crashes while playing.
Sometimes after 10-20 minutes and sometimes after 10-20 seconds into a mission.
The crashes don’t occur during any specific action.
Here are my PC specs:
Processor: Intel i9-14900KF
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER
32 GB RAM and all on SSDs.
The drivers are now up to date (I already had the crashes, but the drivers weren’t up to date. Then I updated the drivers and unfortunately I’m still getting crashes).
NVDIA Driver Number 576.40 and 576.52.
CPU Bios is Updated.

Nvidia has been really bad with drivers for the past few releases. You may want to try some previous versions.

Is your bios up to date, and have you checked if your CPU is impacted by the stability problems that impact 13th and 14th gen Intel CPUs?

I tested the current and latest Nvidia drivers, and both crashed (Number: 576.40 and 576.52)
I have tested with u link, test says no problems with the CPU.
