POE2 System completely freezes on loading screen

Greetings,

Experiencing severe issue in POE2 where my system gets completely frozen when traveling between zones on loading screen. It happens on every 5th or 6th loading scene. When system freezes mouse and keyboard are completely unresponsive, so only solution is to completely shut down my PC on power button. At this point need to stop playing the game until issue is fixed since it messes up my entire system.

Same issue
CPU: Ryzen 7 9800x3d
GPU: Nvidia RTX 4080 Super
Motherboard: PRO B650-A WIFI
RAM: 2x16GB 7200Mhz (EXPO on)
GPU driver 566.36
Windows 11 24H2
CPU driver: AMD Chipset driver 6.10.22.027
BIOS: AMI BIOS 7D75vA32(Beta version)

Changing to DX11, Vulkan, setting compatibility of .exe to Windows 8, and setting frame cap haven't help with the issue.
I'm using the built in stats (f1). Seems like when loading screen occurs, shaders graph sky rockets. It's either that or CPU (even tho I have thermal set to max 90C).
What is weird that mouse becomes very slow, stuttering and eventually is locked completly, as is whole PC

Did found temporary solution. Disabling 2 CPU cores for POE2 in Task Manager. It will still freeze ocasionaly, but at least now I am able to minimize game window when that happens and close the game, which is way better than restarting whole system.

hey

there is an already existing thread for this topic!

long story short in 108 sides: no permanent working solution so far.
PC/game keeps still crashing

Recommendation to stop playing until fix, or play without multithread under 30fps.

Otherwise u will damange your system permanently
Thanks. Temporary solution for me is to set affinity on CPU for POE2 every time I start a game. Setting affinity won't hurt hardware or software.
