POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

"
"
Used to have PC freezes in loading screens, wasn't 100% but about 1/5 loading screens.

I used to crash even using BES but changin process priority as uptill now from the past 3 days fixed the loading screen crashes.

I'm running a 58003DX with a 3090Ti on Win11 24H2 and I've had zero crashes since I did the following:

1. Set core usage to -10% with BES for POE2
2. Set Process Priority for BES to "Realtime"
3. Set Process Priority for POE2 to "Below Normal"
4. Set engine to Vulkan

All my graphic settings are maxed and I'm running the game in 4K.


Alternatively simply deactivating multithreading before changing areas or teleporting also worked before I found those tweaks.

Please note that I have a big gaming testing background and that THIS loading screen crash I had looks similar in repros to every person here who said they had a Ryzen 3D processor in this thread, I'm not aware of other situation as I'm not "testing" on any other hardware, best of luck and I hope it helps someone.


atm I can't even load the game. it's a bit weird


Tried to switch off engine multithreading in the config file before launching?

Same issue as everyone else.
Have to abandon the game as well. This many crashes can't be good for your PC.

Hope they put some bloody high prio on this shit. The fact that it can freeze your full system is crazy.
Devs just need to disable Multithreading while on a loading screen, at least temporarily. This would resolve the issue for now until they can find what exactly is the core problem.

PoE2: A good, giving game
Take care guys. They delete every comment that consits „refund“.

At least they have time for that


Same issue still
Rtx 4090
Ryzen 7800x3D
64GB DDR5

Game itself is great - stability & and integrity could improve a bit
For me is act 2 when more crashes I am encountering.

Still same issues after patch.
Bump for 100 pages 💯

Annoyingly its not happening to any of the big streamers ive watched. You bet your ass they would be more vocal about this issue if Zizaran, Quinn, Asmon or Mathil were crashing every other load screen.


It was happening to Pirate Software, he even uploaded a YT shorts directly telling people to disable Engine Multithreading. But yeah, kinda bothering me that it's not being talked about as much as it should be.

I am also having this issue and it's become much more frequent. PC locks up and forces a hard reboot. Can be in town, on a loading screen or playing the game.

Ryzen 7 5800x
RTX 3070
Latest windows patch and nvidia drivers if that actually means anything.
No temperature issues or anything else wrong with my rig.

Everything full updated. Tinkered with in-game options to no avail. Happily plays any other game at 1440p 150+fps with zero crashes.

It only happened few times during launch weekend but I'm now getting it every 30 minutes.

Does not bode well for a HCSSF player. Or my PC.

Please patch it GGG!
