Hard crashing PC locks up

Please.

Bump.

Furthermore, I ask anyone who sees this message to please give a negative review for Path of Exile 2 on Steam.

Posting my specs just so they're included in the optimization.
I had no issues for a week from launch. Then windows did its own thing. Now constant silly crashes:

Loading screen: press a random key = crash.
click on a stash tab to buy = crash

Etc. Silly out of nowhere things.

IDK 1 fucking month... we represent like 1% of players so we are trash ?

It's like really bad experience.

I don't have this problem every day, but when it happens, it happens a lot. Only by manually disabling CPU cores for the game, I don't get complete PC crashes because I can still quit the game via the Task Manager. yesterday I had no problems, today all the time

Anyone still experiencing this issue, go into your Task Manager>Processes and Set the Affinity of PathOfExile to NOT use CPU 0 and CPU 1. This will allow your PC to have enough resources leftover if PoE Freezes to close the game or cause it to crash the program instead of your OS.

I have been doing this for 1 week and have had 0 hard OS freezes requiring a restart.

You have to do this every time that you start the game. You can add args into steam launch to always launch with the affinity set to this but don't ask me how.
