PoE 2 is NOT destroying my PC hardware (FIXED)
Since launch, PoE will randomly black screen during gameplay and completely hard crash my display adapter leaving me with no choice but to hard reboot. Some days its 20-30 times a day..
My PC: 7800x3D CPU Crosshair Extreme x670E motherboard 1600w Corsair CPU 4090 Nvidia GPU Founders Optane 905p 128GB Memory a number of other SSDs and storage So far I've: Fell back to numerous different nvidia drivers adjusted resolution to various settings and both windowed and fullscreen adjusted all graphics settings down to minimum switched to Vulkan limited CPU cores in task manager upon launch turned off multi-threading in settings uninstalled and reinstalled the game adjusted shader cache in nvidia control panel All firmware, BIOS and hardware drivers are the latest. At this point, i can see some people frying hardware if this keeps up. I've finally just uninstalled the game for now as its just not playable. Are there any others who simply cannot play PoE2 with similar hardware? New Windows install as well and this happens with ZERO other games.

Are you on Windows 24H2? If so, that's the culprit. Roll back to 23H2 and future note never update until you're forced to or verify that the build isn't unstable for your specific uses.
