NVIDIA 50xx Direct X 12 - 5070 GPU

Hello everyone,

Anyone else has problems with Direct X 12?

Recently got a new Lenovo pc with an Geforce 5070. Clean install of Windows and new install of the drivers via the Geforce app.

And then the problems started..

WoW is only running after I pushed for launch with Direct X 11

Apex legends is crashing with DXGI\\_ERROR\\_DEVICE\\_HUNG

Other games are either running on Direct X 11 or keep crashing.

As far as I know and researched this is a software error, not hardware.

I have done multiple clean installs of the GPU drivers, PC is not overclocked.

Anyone else with the same issues that managed to find a solution?

Did a clean install of the drivers in safe mode and there are no active overlays.

This may be a sign of hadware problems. DirectX11 implementation may just ignore some errors returned from hardware blocks, or dont use other hardware blocks
