Game randomly freezes than goes to black screen, having to close it with task manager, sometimes very rarely it throws the usual direct3d error at me.
No crash log is generated.
Freezes happen anywhere from 5mins to an hour or so.

Processor: Intel core i5 4670 @ 3.4ghz 3,8Ghz with autoboost
Video card: Asus ROG MATRIX-R9290X-P-4GD5 / AMD r9 290x
RAM: 16gb Hyperx savage dual kit @ 1600mhz
OS: win7 64bit

In-game settings: all on max and dx11 renderer.
Tried: Setting advanced setting fps optimisation option to on, manually set video memory from auto to 1024mb+ and disabled cpu limit when idle option, these worked yesterday for about 2-3 hours when i exit the game, but today it no longer works.

    So after seeing how the patch notes mentioned measures taken to lessen the crashes i tried the dx11 renderer again.

    With the new update, the game didn't crash for an entire day, but than it started crashing again, more and more frequently, however, this time, i can't close it with task manager anymore, and have to wait around 2-3 mins, until it throws the already reported by others direct3d errors at me.

    Also, last time i forgot to say this, but when the crash occurs, my videocard still shows high usage(even the cooler that is on it keeps running at higher speeds than it usually does when no games are running) even though the game no longer runs, until i restart my pc.
