Still burning up GPU's?

[Jackie Paper]

Wanna play but don't wanna risk it.

[Lovecheese45]

nope

[brimstone]

yes my gpu burns like the hindenburg every time i launch the game

[Dogtatokun]

No. It runs cards hard, but it has never burned them.

No, that was a flaw in evga's cards that they fixed - the onlything new world did was put an fps limit in in case someone elses mediocre card burned out without it.

cool, had me nervous.

Never has. Defective hardware would have burned on any high demanding game. NW just had a launch around that shipment time.

If your card is not made by a pro-producer like asus & msi, then high chances it will smoke. This is one of the worst optimized games, 900k+ quit because of it & many other stuffs.

MSi ventus 4080

software cant burn up a healthy video card or any brand new game would burn up every old card trying to play it. doesn't happen unless the hardware is defective. as others mentioned, devs put an fps limiter in portions of the game that didn't have one prior to save any remaining bad cards but they're just ticking time bombs until something else overheats them.

Then you fine, especially that you have warranty to the card.

This is absolutely FALSE... card don't just have a high chance because it's not made by asus or msi , if you are not knowledgeable on the subject you shouldn't spread mis-information about things.

99.999% of the cards are fine , it was a solder issue with evga cards that was corrected (it was only certain card from a certain batch number) , it had nothing to do with software , if it wasn't for new world it would have just happened on another game that would have released that is very CPU intensive , and there are plenty around , as far as optimization goes new world isn't the only game that's bad with it.

so if your card isn't an EVGA then you have nothing to worry about , ofcourse there are always failure rates but they are negligible , plus the issue that caused the EVGA cards to show their failure (uncapped fps on menu) has been patched over a year ago.

and as far as shaggy , goes , he just posts on this forum trolling on how bad the game is and whatever just to spread dissent under the community , he prolly doesn't even play the game , he just has nothing better to do then hate on it.

The graphics are trash, so I dunno why GPUs would be burning.
