Post your computer spec's? I am VERY curious why you crash so often while the majority of us are not. Could be some conflicts or out dated hardware.
i7 950 - 3,06GHz
GTX 660Ti (2 gigs - factory OC)
10GB RAM

In my case underclocking GPU was the only thing helping. I can only hope that this patch didn't ruin it completely.

And majority is not experiencing these crashes, but still considerably many is.

I read the other day that the game is extreme sensitive to overclocked hardware, even slightly and that crashes will stop if you set your clock rates back to default. Something to try if anyone is in that situation.

I haven't had a crash myself in 40+ hours.
Try resetting it back to default. I've also seen some issues with hardware/software auto updates crashing the game. Might want to make sure nothing is over taxing your system during play.

Possibly... But if you read it properly, i have factory overclock. THIS OC IS DEFAULT. I'm not setting the GPU to normal frequency. I'm lowering it UNDER default frequency.
Gtx560 never had any crash

try using page file 4000-8000
Got similarly freezes at times as well.

-intel i7 940
-MSI gtx 970
-6 GB Ram
-Windows 8.1 Pro
-using nvidia experience optimized settings
-352.86 version of nvidia drivers

v1.04 is better in that sense that I don't need to restart the computer in order to play the game again - which it did fail in 1.03 version (did try to check from task manager anything related to witcher3 when the game froze and I alt-tabbed to the desktop. The game did start but after I pressed a key to the first graphics the game just closed itself).

PS not overclocking anything - apart from display refresh rate (its asus swift pg278q)... can that affect?

JayGee7485: snip.
I wasn't responding to your post specifically. It is a general comment about overclocking and how it can affect the game.
I doubt you find anything in running precesses. When the game crashes it's actualy beacuse from some reason the display driver is restaring itself. Game causes the restart and the restart is causing the game crash.

kk sorry... Still it's nuts if it's sensitive to factory overclock as well.

It is possible that some factory OC'd cards may be unstable with it, especially if you've tried under clocking and seen an improvement in stability. That would annoy me for sure too.

yeah... Especially when it wasn't unstable... Ever... Until now... And it still isn't. It's just this one and only game having problems with it.
