Keep crashing POE2

Hi, I'm a new player to POE2 and am having many crashes since I started playing doing simple actions like intereacting a NPC, changing maps or interacting with mobs.

System specs:
CPU: Intel i7-13700KF
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti
Ram: 32.0 GB

What I noticed happening quite often would be the CPU maxing out at 100% utilisation and running to 5+ GHz. Please do let me know if there is any other information required to resolve this issue.

ive been having the exact same issue the devs are doing nothing about it
Can't even progress now. Been on the caravan in act 2, needing to go to the traitor's passage. Interacted with the desert map to move the caravan and interacted to get off into traitor's passage but just crash straight after with the same CPU spiking.

I have 2070s Nvidia but have the same issue. I was not able to use the desert map to teleport to Traitor's Passage. Now friend helped me to teleport there on his PC but now my game completely crashes after log in. Seems like there is an issue with this map
did you try switching to vulcan?
Tried switching to vulcan, DX11, changing all settings to the lowest possible value, updating drivers, updating windows from 10->11 23h2 all to no effect. Crash everytime I change maps and it just resets my dungeon progress. I've been stuck on traitor's passage and have restarted that dungeon trying to get to Halani gates for the past 5 attempts

Bump. Still having the same issue
Having lesser issues running the game on efficiency mode in windows 11. This limited POE2 to max 30% of CPU which seemed to solve the issue albeit a bandaid fix for now. Only downsides are the low FPS and longer loading screens.
yep im currently on my 9th run of the trials of the sekeham annnnnnnd i literally can't play it, crashes every single time, or i get screen freeze i hear game sound in the background but the screen is not doing anything! Literally means i can't continue to play lol this is literally a joke, they will sut there and focus of nerfing the builds the streamers are coming up with but yet to the average consumer they will just leave to have the same issues!
for me only the steam client crashed. when i use the poe launcher version, it doesn't crash
