Path of Exile Keeps Crashing On My High-End PC

POTENTIAL FIX for i9 (13th gen)

I have been getting similar crashes all the time since the release of 3.25, maybe even before, but I believe that I found a solution. This was also from a different thread, this solution is only for i9 (13th gen) PC's.

SOLUTION: get the Intel's Extreme Tuning Utility, or XTU, to underclock the CPU. I have a i9-13900KF, the default settings on performance core ratio is 55x and on efficient core ratio is 43x. I lowered the performance core to 50x and the efficient core to 40x (feel free to try other settings).

This solutions sucks because it shouldn't even be a solution to a problem but so far this has worked for me, no more crashes.

+1, fyI

I am having extremely bad performance issues since the latest patch. Stuttering, lag, freezing, frame skips, and often times it logs me out to the character select screen. It's making mapping impossible. This seems to happen any time I engage with any league mechanic (ultimatum when I press a button, legion when I spawn the enemies, breach when I open the hand, etc).

None of these issues were happening a couple hotfixes ago but since the last hot fix it's happening every single map.

GGG clearly something is wrong here because PoE1 was operating fine prior to this last hot fix

I had this issue as well. The game would crash sometimes after 1-2 minutes, sometimes after 30 minutes. I had this problem for at least since Phrecia event started, but it's possible this started occuring before that.

My unexpected solution to this was found at random.
I switched rendering from DX12 to Vulkan. I'm not sure if this works for anyone else, but it's worth a shot.

My game crashed in every juiced rogue exile map since last week. I even asked a friend to try my account on his end, and he crashed as well.

I just found out today, after I removed a ring MTX, ring of the demon slayer, the game stopped crashing. I don't remember whether I put on the MTX before or after the Mar 22 patch. I'm not sure if anyone else has the same problem, if you are using this mtx and crashes sometimes, try removing it. Maybe it will help.

On PC (reinstalled game as well). Every time I finish a map and I enter the portal to return to the hideout the game crashes to the desktop.

Faulting application name: PathOfExileSteam.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x67e4f0de

Exception code: 0xc0000005

Error coding from Event Log. Seems others are also replicating this same error on PC as well. Hope they fix because logging in from every map is exhausting since patch update.

Thanks for this post. Worked like a champ for me. Barely could ever finish 1 map with out a crash, if I could get into game w/o crashing.

i9-14900-KF
My setting were 57 and 45, changed them using XTU to your settings of 50 and 40 and just finished 6 flawless hours w/o a crash

same here, with a recent fresh reinstall of the game it worked perfectly. recently i crash non stop

yes, i did all the things
dx11,12, vulcan, all low graphics (altho i have a pretty good pc), my pc is plugged in the power outlet and is turned on
