Interesting, I'm using steam so I might try this. Is anyone else that's crashing using steam as well? Perhaps that's the issue.

How long were you able to play with the Standalone version? That seems like an interesting lead.

3-4 hours without an additional program and not a single freeze since then

Can someone here with the freeze issues confirm to play on standalone client?
Or is this issue exclusive to steam version?

I don't exp freezes on steam, but got stutters and fixed it.

my full list of possible solutions:
Possible solution for game FREEZES and system reboots:
1) Update latest chipset drivers and BIOS for your motherboard. (be very careful with BIOS update watch guides or use help of experienced tech guys)
2) In BIOS settings DISABLE for ASUS-"Multicore enhancement", for MSI "Enhanced Turbo", for GIGABYTE "Tweaker tab, Enhanced Multi-Core Performance".
3) Clear AMD/Nvidia shader cache. (just google it)
4) DISABLE dynamic culling in game options.
5) Turn off Nvidia Reflex in game options.
6) CLOSE all your browsers and their processes in your system before playing the game.

For BES steps if you want to try it out:

1. Download BES CPU Limiter.
2. Unzip it, and run the .exe.
3. Launch Path of Exile 2 and stay on the log-in screen.
4. Go back to BES, and press the "Target" button.
5. Find pathofexile.exe in the list, select it, and press the "Limit this" button.
6. Set the slider at the bottom of BES between -2% and -5% (I would recommend -5%).

The task bar icon for BES should turn into a red square, Path of Exile 2 should be coloured in orange in the list inside BES, and it should say "Foe". See here for an example. Try anything between -2% and -5% (as mentioned I'd recommend -5% as -2% may not be enough to stop the system freeze)."

"Possible solution for game STUTTERS:

1) Update latest chipset drivers and BIOS for your motherboard. (be very careful with BIOS update watch guides or use help of experienced tech guys)
2) Clear AMD/Nvidia shader cache. (just google it)
3) Do NOT change NVIDIA control panel settings for PoE2.
4) Do NOT disable Full screen optimization in EXE files of the game.
5) CLOSE all your browsers and their processes in your system [in my case opened Chrome cause stutters every 2-3 seconds]
6) Turn OFF NVIDIA Reflex in game options tab.

Info for devs - mostly problem located in working browsers IDK how this correlate with PoE2 performance but it is!"
