As said above this issue was here before Creators update. It's a long standing problem with the game and AMD cards.

There is not much we can do on the user side, there either needs to be a driver update that corrects the issue or the game itself being fixed.

Reverting to 15.12 is not a good solution. Those drivers are quite old now and can can cause compatibility issues with newer cards and games, to the point that some won't even run with them.
I think you're right. Last night on DX9, it froze up for a short time, went black, then resumed like normal. I'm assuming that's it crashing but recovering. But in DX11, it crashes to desktop every time.
