This isn’t a game issue whatsoever, it’s a problem with GPU/GPU drivers. There’s no way whatsoever that a programming error should lead to this kind of crash, and most importantly, for hundreds of thousands of people - they are not getting this error.
Please search for DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED on Google to find a number of tips (downgrading GPU drivers to e.g. NVIDIA 416 series, reducing core clock, disabling TDR), or report this issue to your GPU driver vendor so they can add a workaround to resolve it.
In addition, 8 GB RAM might be too little to play on certain servers that aren’t optimized well - to play on typical servers with hundreds of resources, 16 GB of memory is recommended. It may also help to extend the page file size in Windows since sometimes it won’t expand the page file fast enough.
using an older driver version doesn’t work, also it always worked up until a few days ago with 8 GB ram, there isn’t any other game that has this same issue, so i highly doubt it is an issue from my system.
It 100% is a GPU driver crash. FiveM itself isn’t causing this.
Just because other games work, doesn’t mean that your driver is fine. GPU vendors constantly fix bugs for specific games (check NVIDIA driver changelog)
