Black Screen / "No Signal" Crash Exclusively in Path of Exile - RTX 4090

Dear Path of Exile Support Team,

I am experiencing a persistent and critical issue that occurs only when playing Path of Exile. My system runs other demanding games and stress tests without any problems.

My System Configuration:

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

Operating System: Windows 11

The Problem:
When I launch Path of Exile, within a few minutes of being in the game, my monitor suddenly goes black and displays "No Signal" or "Input Signal Not Found." The computer itself remains running; I can still hear audio from the game or background applications like YouTube, but the image never returns. I am forced to perform a hard reset to recover.

Troubleshooting Steps I Have Already Taken:

Reinstalled the Game: Completely uninstalled and reinstalled Path of Exile.

Reinstalled Windows: Performed a clean installation of Windows.

Updated Drivers: Used DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) to perform a clean installation of multiple versions of NVIDIA drivers, including older ones.

Stress Testing: Ran FurMark GPU stress test for 5 minutes at 1440p resolution. The GPU performed perfectly with stable FPS, temperatures around 75°C, and no crashes. This confirms the hardware is stable under general load.

Important Observations:

This crash only happens in Path of Exile. All other applications are stable.


The problem began abruptly. The game was working perfectly on Monday, but the crashes started occurring on Tuesday.

Based on my testing, the issue appears to be specific to an interaction between Path of Exile and my system's graphics driver.

Could you please advise if this is a known issue? Are there any specific game settings, configuration file edits, or workarounds you can recommend?

Thank you for your time and assistance.

I had the same issue, turning off GSYNC solved it for me
