Cold skills crash my GPU

I'm not 100% sure what's actually happening but when I spam cold skills and their are to many chill & freeze particles on the screen my GPU crashes hard and my PC restarts.

I don't think its an overheating issue because I have stable FPS when it happens. I do not have that problem with any other game no matter how GPU demanding they are.

I have had the same issues but since I am clearing out cache of the entire game before I start, it stopped causing issues.

Basically I created a bat file where it deletes everything inside the cache folders.

Locations:
AppData\Roaming\Path of Exile 2\Minimap\
AppData\Roaming\Path of Exile 2\ShaderCacheD3D12\
AppData\Roaming\Path of Exile 2\ShaderCacheVulkan\

Hope it helps but yeah, the game has critical issues with particales and shaders.
Thanks I try that later today :D
