Game Crashes After Anything and Everything

As the title states my game is crashing everytime and I mean everytime. Let's say I want to teleport, I get the loading screen then crash. I log back in, tp, loading screen, I AM IN TOWN OMG, the moment I start walking it crashes. I am not even going to mention the numerous times I haven't been able to log in because my toon was in Mournhold, Belkarth, Rawl'Kha etc. I don't know how you do it but you manage to break your game everytime after a major patch and your consistency in achieving this is AMAZING.

    Same thing. Crashes ALL the time. Zoning crashes. Enter building crashes. Going to mail crashes. Open quest log crashes. Standing, doing nothing crashes.

    Why Zenimax? Why?!

    Are they time outs? Where your connection is dropped and your thrown back into the log in screens. Or are they actual crashes where like the "ESO has crash unexpectedly and or stopped responding" Type crap. I'm also experience a ton of time outs since the last update. However, if its crashes if I were you I would update video drivers, deactivate add-ons except for the ones you need.

    Also major question for Altorparia have you overclocked your R9 390x? I have the same card and was experiencing nonstop crashes in just ESO a few months ago until I switched to a particular driver and down-clocked to my default clock rate. Afterwards the crashes stopped and I could play on max settings no issues, however prior to this the game would get really laggy regardless of setting and then black screen or crash.

    To fix this I started using using Crimson 16.12.2 drivers and downclocked to default/base rates. I haven't tried the newer drivers yet because, I am not sure if they work ESO yet since I usually experience a lot issues with this card and ESO. If had known before I probably would of just went with the 980 EVGA when I bought it. Seriously, though even if its a stable overclock in other games down-clock it to its default 1080 core clock 1500mhz Mem clock. It will probably work afterwards. I usually have mine set at 1170mhz and 1500mhz but, unless I downclock in ESO I go right back to crash city.

    Here's my post, from when I resolved this issue a few months ago. If it sounds familiar or even if it doesn't I would defiantly give it a shot considering we use the same card. However, good luck! Let me know it worked

    Mine are the unexpected crashes and I have an Alienware R3 with 980m non-overclocked.

    What system/OS? How often? When do they happen? Do you have the latest system updates for your OS? and have you updated your video drivers?

    I am experiencing straight to Windows crashes and my card is not overclocked. Also, everything is up to date.

    However I've narrowed these crashes down to my Sorcerer. I am literally only experiencing these crashes on my sorcerer. Addons are the exact same across characters too, I just can't figure out why this is happening.
