I can play Guild Wars 2 and Final Fantasy 14 on ultra settings but PoE causes my GPU to committ suicide? For some reason I find this really funny and it has to be a World First. Did you even consider the more rational possibility that your GPU was already dying and that it died while you were playing PoE, just as if you were playing any other game at that moment ? I guess not. If my GPU dies when I'm playing X or using Y on my PC, I won't jump to the conclusion that X or Y killed my GPU, because it's more than likely that the hardware itself is the first suspect. The "nothing on my end" mindset make people do some weird reasoning : "1/ I was playing PoE ; 2/ My GPU died while playing PoE ; 3/I was playing other games on max settings and my GPU didn't die while playing them. 4/Therefore, PoE killed my GPU". Hu ? Lol, it is possible though that a certain game kills the PC, mine crashes only when i play Smite, POE runs fine as do all other games i have so yeah, i would blame the only game that keeps crashing my PC. Hard to tell whether the OPs PC crashed when playing POE a lot though, as this might be some coincidence though.	Posted by Deleted on Mar 16, 2015, 8:11:05 AM

Captain here ( not a Captain , more like an engineer in electronics and communications ) --- Your GPU didn`t die... --- It needs a re-balling... ...why ? Every device has a maintenance drill ... PC/Laptops they need to be dust cleaned , verify the cooling system and that it`s not obstructed in any way , changing the thermo-conductor grease between the processor and motherboard and GPU and motherboard every 3-6 months depending on your working medium ( you smoke , too much dust , weather too hot etc ).
