Is the game still melting GPUs?
I really loved the game and want to come back. But im scared for my new GPU (ASUS TUF RTX 3080). I remember there was this big thing that the game is breaking high end GPUs. I know there was a manufacturer problem with some of them but still reading it can happen. Someone playing with a RTX 3080 for a longer time and has no problems? or did they officially fix this problem?

Only problem with the game now is the unexplained use of RAM and HD. you using an SSD or an M.2 you will notice the constant use of these hardware. and all this started after the last Grand att.

I use M.2 and no issues at all. 2070 (not over clocked) runs around 68C at 2k resolution.

Some people a few weeks ago were reporting hitching in game but I never saw it myself


If im to be frank here, for how the game looks, it runs remarkably well and with lower than expected resources. My GPU is never slammed for instance, and CPU use isnt crazy. Im acutally not sure where all this GPU destruction, poor performance, is coming from. Its like one of the only major positives about the game, for how it looks, it runs really well. Some people seem prone to game issues, ive never been one, so take that for what its worth as well.

No game can melt a properly functioning and well configured GPU. The fact that this was even news in the first place boggles the mind.

Keep an eye on your temps and re-paste it if necessary.

I read previously about issues playing this game using an RTX 3090. I suppose the rumors do hold value - It happened on 3 separate occasions now within the week that character textures and floor/ ground textures glitch and within a few seconds the game freezes and GPU crashes!! I will proceed to uninstall New World forever and forget it ever existed :steamthumbsdown: :steamthumbsdown:. Don't have any issues whatsoever playing BDO, FF XIV or Guild Wars 2 .

I still dont understand why people dont do this in every game, or via their graphics card software. Like I try not to be smug about the fact ive had so many systems over the years and nearly no game issues with any of them, but I really do feel like people who have all these issues are doing something wrong on their end, be it lack of proper updates, or tinkering with their overclock software.

Then again, you probably are not very smart buying a 3090 to play 10 year old mmorpgs and a few new games....

using Geforce RTX 3080 ti, no issues running the game, but issue with connecting.... My friends dragged me to east coast servers, and now I have extremely hard time getting into game, something they did, certainly not my alienware pc.

Considering its a 3080... I think he's in the clear. Where on earth do you get a 3090? Calling HIM stupid while you cant even get the card right?? lol

PS - I bought a Radeon Sapphire Nitro+ 7900XTX 24GB GDDR6... for New World.

Just because you cant afford better, doesnt make anyone else "dumb"

Oh and before you spout off anything else, I built my systems from scratch since 1994. I KNOW what Im doing.

My 7900XTX is like a warm blanket. Doesnt matter WHAT I choose to play, I know I'll be playing it at max settings on my 38" 3440x1440p Ultrawide display at 144hz.

Never had problems with my old RTX 2080S, also not with my current RTX 4070 Ti.
If you want to go sure, just set the global frame rate limit to your monitor refresh rate using the Nvidia control panel. This way you can be sure, that no game is able to exceed the monitor refresh rate, which might can kill a GPU with issues.

Don't want to freak anyone out, I just got a new 4080 to replace my 2080ti, on an Samsung Odyssey super wide monitor thing, I have been benchmarking stuff, hitting the 240hz refresh rate in various games, and I thought, hey I wonder how New World runs, so I loaded it up and in the menu my GPU fans went crazy and the system turned off. I have only just got it back on and obviously not too keen on loading it up again. I dunno, maybe coincidence, but there it is.

Always set a fps limit in your GPU driver! Then this never can happen. New World will not be the last game with this issue.

Ratchet and Clank: Rift apart crashing AMD gpu's with ray tracing.

GPU issues happen .


Recent GPU'S have weird power requirements, in that power spikes can over whelm the PSU
