POE Freezes up my whole PC
So whenever playing POE my PC sometimes completely freezes up, and the only solution is to turn it off using the button on the computer. This only happens when playing POE, I can play other games it won't happen. I can run stress tests simultaneously for my GPU, CPU and memory and it won't freeze or thermal throttle. The freezes don't happen at specific points like entering maps or playing a map with loads of monsters. It can happen during a map and it can also happen if I just leave my char afk in my hideout while I go do some other things. The timing on the issue is not consistent, sometimes I can play for like 6 hours and it won't happen, other times it happens multiple times in a span of 2 hours. I could not find a solution to this issue. My GPU Drivers are up to date, my BIOS is up to date. Any help or ideas is appreciated.

go into the event viewer and check the errors that are cropping up around the time you need to hard reset the PC

I have a 7800x3d as well and the only workaround that worked for me was setting multithreading mode to disabled.

" I cannot find any errors in the System Event Logs at the time of the freeze, just ones after I turn the pc back on saying that it was not properly shut down. |
