Green Screen crash
Playing for two hours and the game already sent my PC to green screen of death twice, just freezes PC with green screen and all I can do is to restart PC by clicking on power button lol.

Anyone else had the same problem? Any fixes? Playing on Radeon 6650xt.

make sure you are logged out of all other servers BUT steam... NO Browsers open... Turn down high res options to mid... (Still looks good) Run COMMAND in Admin and type in SFC /SCANNOW this will check for errors and fix in windows. Check you power supply... I have not had problems with my NVIDIA 3080 since I did this as my 750 WATT power supply is not able to fully power CPU and GPU ,,, waiting to by an 850 and then will test the high end...

Green screen is usually a video memory issue, likely swapping frames from the video card to system memory. When the game is running you should start task manager and click performance then GPU. It should show the temperature and the Shard GPU memory usage.

Outside of the power supply issues listed above, drivers, temperature, system memory swapping, and so on...

It uses 50% of video memory, 71% of CPU and around 70 of GPU. I've tried to lower the settings and disabling Vsync, will see if that will help.

EDIT: Didn't help, another green screen crash right after loading after escaping from Nautilon.

go into setting and set a 60fps framerate cap
it will keep the temps down and prevent thermal entropy
I have 60hz screen so it can't go over 60 fps lol but I had it on apparently, didn't help :(

just cause you have 60hz does not mean it stops at 60 unless you have vsync on.
for fun you could set everything to lowest settings and see if that works

In my case it was PSU that was causing problems, replacing PSU fixed all the issues.
