Constant random freezing

[Anida]

It seems, that you have an overclocked system. The 12700K is specified up to 3200 MHz memory clock. And yes, it can make a difference.

Freezing and unfreezing can also be an indicator for overheating or defective Harddisk/SSD. Look into the Windows Event Log. Maybe there are some entries.

Her harddisk is not defective. Stop blaming the PC's. You could scare someone into quitting or spending money they don't need to spend. While I don't know anything about overclocking, it's highly doubtful that's the problem. For every single person who has been experiencing these problems, and more, the problems started after Dawntrail.

It's the bloody game, mate. Just stop.

If it would be the game then everyone would have the same problems.

Its almost like there are millions of iterations of different hardware/software configurations out there which might cause some people to have similar issues and not others.

As others have said I have no issue with ANY other game or ANY other software no issues BEFORE DT. Something has changed and its not on my end.

I rolled back my Nvidia drivers to 552.44 as I thought the latest drivers might have been the issues and it seems to have possibly reduced the amount of freezes but I did still get a few to happen after doing this.

The thing with software development is if your 'release' causes a bunch of people to now start having the same issue, you fix the software, not tell your users to fix their hardware.
