Lost Ark Game Freezes with Arc A770

Hi everyone,

 

I installed my Arc A770 for 3 days now and I have the following issue when playing Lost Ark.

 

The game freezes at irregular intervals constantly (30mins to 2 hours) for no apparent reason and requires to close it from the task manager. Not even Alt-F4 or Shift-Ctrl-Win-B will work. Also I sometimes get heavy stutters on Youtube videos (like green static) that require multiple reloads of the page to stop.

I have uninstalled all previous drivers from my previous GPU, I updated my Bios, I updated my processor drivers, I have the Resizable Bar enabled, I did a total uninstall on the Intel GPU drivers and reinstalled them.

I have a Ryzen AMD 5600 proc. with a Gigabyte  B550M DS3H motherboard and 16Giga memory.

My previous GPU was a Sapphire RX570 4GB and I never had any problem running any game.

At this point if I don't solve the problem I will have to return the Arc A770 for something else since I don't see to find what else to do.

Any suggestions before I take final measures?

Thank you in advance for your time and answers.

Hi, AlexKlavdianos.

Thank you for posting in our Community, and I see that you’ve already put in a lot of effort troubleshooting. Since you're experiencing freezing in Lost Ark and stuttering with YouTube videos, this could indicate a driver, compatibility, or power-related issue. Let's try to narrow down the issue further

  • Are there any error messages or logs when the game freezes? Checking the Event Viewer for any error logs can provide clues about the cause of the freezes.
  • Have you tried adjusting the graphics settings in Lost Ark? If so, could you share your current settings or provide screenshots if possible?


You told me about your CPU, GPU, and motherboard, but I would like to go one step further and confirm details such as OS build# and see if there are errors logged. The SSU can collect that info that can be helpful to me. For your privacy and security, I have already sent you an email to collect the SSU reports. Once I receive the logs, I can investigate further and provide better assistance.


Have a nice day!

Ty so much for taking time to check on my matter.

 
Unfortunately I decided to uninstall my Arc A770 and return it. The last 2 days I experienced regular system shutdowns while playing this specific game as well as freezes and I just can't risk my overall pc's health. I ran stress tests and benchmarks and all seem to be ok but Lost Ark is the main game I have time to play with and it just seems that this card has trouble with it. I also ran other games at max specs and no problems were noticed. I have a Corsair TX750 PSU which is more than enough to cover the card's needs for power consumption.
 
I wish you all the best in the field of GPUs and the bold step you take to compete in this market but unfortunately at this point, based on my experience I just can't bring myself to recommend an Intel GPU as a choice in case I am asked.
 
Best Regards,
