Dx 12 works, but a bit choppy.. When switching to Vulkan it instant crashes.

Switching to vulkan caused ctd's for me too. And DX12 is performing horribly.

Just curious, I have a 6800XT if it helps troubleshoot.

YEa the game doesn't even run in DX12 it's DX11 or nothing because Vulkan just crashes the game for me.

Like I can't even use any upscaling there all grayed out.

C:\Users\*your username*\Documents\My Games\Path of Exile 2\

open poe2_production_Config.ini

change the line "renderer_type=Directx12" to "renderer_type=Vulkan".
