Rendering device error causing penalties

When Overwatch is the only game that causes the error out of the 12 or so that I play, then yeah…it’s a blizzard problem lol

No , not really. That doesn’t work like that mate.
Firs of all because you don’t own ALL existing games, so you can’t literally make the claim that “only OW causes the error”.

Second, there are million players with Nvidia that are not getting that error so its clearly a “you” issue. Take into account that the message you are receiving is from Windows, not OW.

Here are some of the other RTX threads that might have ideas that will help.

Personally, I get the same errors depending on the patch on a non-Nvidia card if I run much of anything else at the same time. It’s just life with Blizzard games.
