To fix it for me I Set my renderer to Vulkan hard locked my fps setting to 60 background and foreground. Mode is Windowed Fullscreen

Disabled the windows 11 game bar and game mode
disabled NVidia overlay


Followed above. PC Hard-crash at first port to town. So no luck for me.
I reverted back to 23H2 instead. Works flawlessly again with a 9800X3D.
Settings > Windows Update > Advanced Options > Recovery > Go back to the previous version of Windows.

Or simply search for Recovery in the search bar. Took me about 5 minutes and then I was back in windows. Microsoft store reinstalled a few apps I had updated since the update and that was it.

I think this option is available for a few weeks after updating to a new major version. After doing this, make sure you untick the "Get the latest updates as soon as they're available" option if you've ever ticked that. Or it will probably reinstall 24H2 again.

Geez.. This help u for a hour? Day? To next update? This dnst work dude. Read topic before u think that will help. Its a scam fix. Simple - gamers with WIN 11 VER 22h/23h HAVE THE SAME ISSUE that u at 24h before u reverted win. So maybe any advice for them? Reverted 2 v21? Maybe win10 witch gamers have the same issue even before POE2 EA was released? :)
Also the windows update was especially for you 9800x3d CPU. Reverting back means ur cutting off performance for other games etc. Just for POE2? I dont know. Its not acceptable,
Mu cpu is 7700x. I have same problem.

It won’t attract attention; they don’t care. This post has been up for a week and is still being updated. The problem isn’t just with the developers’ attitude—it’s obvious they’re afraid to take responsibility because people could officially blame them if their hardware gets damaged. It’s not just PCs freezing; I’ve seen cases with consoles as well.

The issue also lies with the stubborn PoE players, who have always mockingly laughed at Blizzard’s fan base. They used to say that Blizzard fans would swallow anything they’re given. Yet, despite all the freezes and crashes on their systems, they still keep playing the game, rebooting their PCs, jumping through hoops, and trying questionable methods to fix issues that the developers themselves should be addressing.

At the same time, they keep the game’s online numbers high enough that the developers don’t worry and don’t see the problem as anything serious. If all these people writing here simply stopped playing the game, it would have a greater impact than repeatedly sharing the same advice, which sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t. In the end, it still leads back to system freezes or game crashes.

We have a saying, and if adapted for English users and this particular problem, it would go like this: “If the tool's too short, blame Windows.” Think about it.

No negativity intended.
Is this an AMD CPU issue?
