    AMD R9 290x card DX11 issues still happening

    HI there,

    Supposedly this was fixed, however, I am still having this issue when running the game in DX11.

    The issue again that I am having is where if I am in DX11, when teleporting to various areas, the game will freeze during the teleport phase. Also alt-tabbing out will freeze the game as well. DX9 works fine but DX11 will not. When Heavensward was first brought out, DX11 worked fine, however, after one of the earlier patches this problem has been happening and for what I cannot seem to fix it.

    I have updated to the newest drivers, etc, but it still happens. Can run DX9c just fine, but DX11 is where I have the issues.

    Anyone else?

    Thanks

    Still having this issue. I have re-installed new driver, re-installed older driver for when it did work. Nothing seems to correct the issue. Very frustrating

    Hello.
    I have AMD R9 290x currently and my game will occasionally either freeze or crash to desktop when I try to warp or alt-tab. When it crashes there is no error messages it just immediately exits the client.
    I only play on DX11 and have experienced this on both the latest stable drivers and beta drivers. This started happening after I switched to a new system only keeping my GPU and HDDs from the previous machine.

    My OS is Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
    i5 6500k - r9 290x - DDR4 - MSI Z170A-GAMING-M5 - Realtek audio

    I'm running windows 10 with a R9 290, and have never encountered this issue.

    running windows 7 DX11 and 290x boarder-less window mode with no problems. never had problems running a 290x with DX9 or DX11 until i tried out my more powerful 290X(fan cooled). Started to get disconnects and freezing/hard freezing. found out it was my 290x fan cooled card that was over heating. switched it back to my liquid cooled 290x and never had a problem ever again. (different model 290x, fan cooled slightly more overclocked)

    for crossfire use CivilizationBE_DX11 profile

    I like window boarderless mode because i can surf the net and play at the same time without hiding the game screen with Alt-Tab.

    I've had the crash to desktop upon activating teleport issue occasionally since 3.3 actually. Whenever it starts to load a new instance, the teleport cast being the start of this load, it sometimes immediately crashes to desktp for me. Even doing an entirely clean fresh install of GPU drivers didn't work.

    I'm playing on an MSI Nvidia GTX 970.

    Just a follow-up. After the latest patch, I decided to go back an Run it on DX11. So far so good. Seems like SE might have fixed something on their end or some one did. Have played since the new patch and it has not froze up once for me.

    AMD drivers might still need to be optimized

    I have a Fury and every once in a while will get a directx error and crash to the desktop. But its quite rare and it happens on other games. Just my two cents.
