This is awesome!!!! I just ran a map on Vulkan on my 10 year old computer.

All my problems with the game freezing and stuttering were gone. I used to freeze/stutter on every map. The entire map was as smooth as butter.

It has been a long time since the game ran this smoothly!!!

I have only done one map since this patch. I will let you know if performance changes.

I listed my computer specs in spoiler in case this helps you find/solve problems.

Like others, I'm wondering if this will be like the Vulkan beta: Great at first, then devolving into the game engine REQUIRING shadows and REQUIRING bloom. What's next? Requiring motion blur? Requiring depth of field? Heck, why don't we just require controllers and forget about KB+M next?
(2-3-2019) Buff underused skills (3.23?!)+ selfcast, stop nerfing defense, build in threshold jewels (3.23?!), implement D3-style looting, add death log + MTX preview, actually rework flasks, stop balancing around the .01%, unnerf Harvest, ADD NEW WAYS TO LEVEL, finally implement Loot 2.0


Great patch i guess, too bad i can't beta-test it properly.

awesome, love dev team
while FPS (and latency, for that matter) are at least as good as before, I notice a rather large amount of random (?) crashs to desktop (up to 5 per map), seeming to increase with progress within the map;
if that makes any sense (maybe particularly flashy animations during boss fight for example?).

I use Vulkan (for ...2? years now with good performance), PoE is of course installed on SSD, I use of course a cable connection and before the patch, ctd like this were VERY rare.

specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8core 3,80 GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060
RAM: 32,0 GB
Windows 11 64bit

Just consider this info that might need attention, in case theres a structural problem that doesnt just include me.
