Ok so I have suffered this issue applied the fix and now it takes Arma 3 slightly longer to drop performance and then crash (taking my graphics driver with it.) would logs or anything else be helpful at this point? Do we have any specific driver versions impacted or configurations that might be bad or good? I have also tried clearing all parameters and running stock: same behavior. I have also had a look through the event viewer but have seen no events at the time of crashes. I have tried Multiple missions/mod resulting in similar behavior. Anyone got any ideas on a workaround or root cause as this has bricked my game.
Here is my set up.
Software:
Win 7x64
AMD crimson 16.4.1
Arma (Performance client update above)
Hardware:
i72600k
R9 380 4G
8GB DDR3
Raid Array for applications.
