POE2 Crashing/Freezing Potential Fix

[BoellieBeef]

First of all let me say poe keep freezing when i loaded into new area cpu usage went up to 100% and i had to physically restart my pc or the game just randomly crashed.

For reference ill post my specs:
Windows 11 Po 24h2
NVIDIA RTX3060Ti (MSI)
64GB DDR4 Coarsair dominator 3200mhz RAM
ASUS ROG B550-F Motherboard
2 TB Gigabyte Aorus NVME
850Watt Antec PSU
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 4.8Ghz


Try the following as it worked for meP:
1.Install Nvidia 566.14 ( Do a clean install ) ( 566.36 and up made the issue worse for some reason).
2. Down clock your CPU a bit.(CPU Can be Max clocked to 4.8Ghz so it set it to 4.0Ghz
3. Down clock your ram speed a bit.(RAM can run MAX at 3200mhz i changed it to 3000mhz

One of my friends had the same issue with a completely different and newer setup than mine and it sorted his issue as well
you might have to fiddle a bit with the down clocking to get the sweet spot for poe 2 until they patch the issue

HOPE THIS HELPS

Messing with your clock speeds is ridiculous and insane. Just set the core affinity to 2 less in task manager details when running the game. OR be like me and just stop playing this BS til they fix it.

This is just trying to help anyone trying to play the game, core affinity didnt do anything for me thats why i posted this thread to help fellow players
