    Whenever I play Battlefield 4 with SLI it crashes really frequently("Battlefield 4 has stopped working"), I'm not sure if it's the game servers or my GPU, but I'm wondering if there are specific settings to fix the crashes from happening too much.

    My Machine:

    3rd Generation Intel Core i7-3630QM Processor(
    2.40GHz 6MB)Windows 8 64 Bit
    NVIDIA GeForce GT650M SLI 2GB
    8.0GB PC3-12800 DDR3 SDRAM 1600 MHz
    15.6" FHD LED Glare Wedge 1920x1080
    **Samsung 840 EVO 250GB
    Intel Centrino Wireless N-2230
    Bluetooth Version 4.0

    Do you recommend downgrading back to 8?
