I keep getting a DXGI_Error with device hung at the bottom as a cause. I have a radeon R9 280 and this has only been happening this week. Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing this? I ask because I routinely get disconnected and have to reset my entire computer between 2 and 8 times a night, and get penalized every time the game crashes my system.

Would be good to have the full error posted.

First things to look into, have drivers been updated recently?
Try a roll back if so, if not try an update.

Clean out the entire driver package using driver display uninstaller from guru 3d before doing the above.

Which 280 is it? is it factory over clocked? if so downclock it and see if the problem is resolved.

How old is the PSU and what is it.

I sometimes have this, seems to happen more often if I alt tab out of the game a lot and browse.

Try to change video mode from fullscreen to full screen window or just windowed mode. Or other way around. Worked for me.
