Disable SMT/hyper-threading to fix errors/crashes
I couldn't play this game due to constant "Video memory running out" crashes. It turned out that disabling "SMT" (AMD's version of hyper-threading) in my motherboard's BIOS fixed this (I've found this suggestion in another thread).

So I recommend disabling it to everyone who encounters crashes. In any case, SMT/hyperthreading rarely offers any performance boosts in games, so you can safely disable it and you won't really notice it (unless you run some demanding non-gaming apps).

Update: it fixed some of the crashes, but not all of them, I'm still getting "out of video memory" crashes (with my RTX 3090 with 24GB VRAM).
