anyone has problems with unreal engine games crashing ?

Some Unreal engined games I run don't tolerate any kind of a GPU overclock.

Apart from that, no problems.

I’d have liked to have seen 0.1%s.

Anecdotally from my BFV frametime graph I have running it does seem a bit smoother with it on...

Yea probably just placebo but a few games I've played do feel smoother.

I wish ID would license their engine or make more games with it. A good battlefield game as smooth and as detailed as doom eternal would be amazing

Had my first bsod with this build thanks to newest driver; have installed the previous month one and all seems okay now (touch wood).

Or a first person RPG. When I'm playing Doom Eternal I'm just thinking how good an RPG like Oblivion or Skyrim would look with such an engine.

Same studio too Bethesda so not impossible.

The Overwatch engine is another good one. Conpared to Source and CSGO it is outrageous Valve are still using it it feels awful on my pc i upgraded to 280hz, Had 240hz Gsync, Freesync nope the games downright unsmooth and jittery compared to the above.

If they let us make mods and skin some things we could make our own battlefield but nope it is such a shame.
