It might be hardware too… or the software/firmware side:
Recently I’ve had every DX12 game crash at start-up, time to RMA my expensive graphics card.
I buy an Intel Arc A750 as a cheap stop-gap as my CPU has no iGPU. I completely wipe windows and start from scratch—I can now play DX12 games! Oh, no, they hang after about 1 hour of play time and brick the system. Hard reboot required.
Also, if my PC sleeps/hibernates then on-wake I get a screen full of GPU mess for about 1 minute before the PC hard resets by itself. Literally impossible to sleep and wake my PC with a an Arc A750 plugged into it.
The drivers (latest and greatest direct from Intel) also report my system does not support ReBAR- but it is enabled in my BIOS and reported working with other utilities like CPUZ.
I honestly disappear, I’ve never had so many problems with computers as I have in the last 5+ years. I’d trade 10 year old graphics for 10 year old stability.

- yabones 4y agoEh, it's not much better. You want to play a game, but the game needs 80GB of updates before it will open. Oops, it dropped out 90% of the way there and needs to start over. It's better than GPU-driver-hell, but consoles aren't without their flaws
