[SOLVED] Crashing / Freezing Path of Exile 2
I saw a topic somewhere here that says the latest nvidia drivers causes this, i found a new hotfix driver that says 566.45.
Let's see if that makes a difference, never had my PC lock up like this before.
Will update this topic if it helps.

EDIT (Issue solved) :
Seems like this hotfix driver fixed all the issues for me.
Zero crashes, played a nice 6 hours+ straight.
driver is here for anyone that needs it : https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5608/~/geforce-hotfix-driver-version-566.45

I was having very similar issues until I switched from DirectX12 to vulcan in the games menu.

Also if you go into the games directory, then to logs you can open the log and see what the issue is at the bottom. Mine had rendering errors.

I just use bse a gpu limiter, that fixes the freezes for me. But it baffles me that they still dind't fixed this issue. It was on their priority list, And no updates anymore since release about this subject

Still no issues.
Changed the thread title so others with the same issue can instantly spot it.
Hope it works for everyone else, posted the solution on the official board as well.
