DOTA 2 Performance Issue in General Discussion

    Hey all,

    Has anyone come across this issue?:

    My dota 2 keeps crashing mid game, it randomly freezes and then I close it. When I try to reopen, it will run but the window never pops up. I check my task manager and I can see it's running. Steam also has some issues with the client not coming to the front.

    I have to do a full system reboot in order to get dota to run again, but when I reopen steam it takes forever and eventually repeats the same issue.

    To give a time window, it crashed around 3 minute mark, and then crashed again around 25 min mark.

    I got an abandon and I don't wanna play again until I resolve it.

    Did anyone experience this last night? Should I reinstall? Is my 2014 gaming rig now a potato pc?

      2014 ? It's old. Can you give us your PC specs ?

      First I recommend you to uninstall the game, then play turbo or unranked to see if the problem is solved. You can even try with bots.

          Year of you computer doesn't matter. I play Dota on 2011 iMac & it works still great.

            Its probably bad specs on your end... can you post them here maybe?

              Frame rate drops? Probably the pc man. Enable the FPS counter and watch how it behaves.

                  I think it might be my new keyboard. Coincidentally it happened the same day I got it. At first I was hoping it wasn't but after researching it seems to be the sad truth among a few.

                  I got the Corsair K63 Wireless. Apparently it might be the wireless dongle causing the issue or CUE.

                  Will troubleshoot I guess.
