Update: Noticed my GPU hit about 82c while playing poe. This in itself shouldn't really be a problem as the RTX 5090 is rated for 90c, but I figured maybe I can do something about it.

tl;dr: was able to reduce GPU temps by about 10c, to around 70c. Now the game no longer crashes.

I don't know if this is an actual fix, I've been playing for about an hour and no issues yet.

If I had to take a guess, I read somewhere that the error I've linked before was about the GPU going from idle to performance mode, which then triggers a bug in the driver that crashes it. Maybe my GPU somehow goes into some kind of temporary idle mode to cool down a bit then go back into performance mode, which then crashes the driver.

I don't know if this will help anyone, but figured I'd post it. Good luck exiles.

This doesn't work for me. My 4090 was hitting like 80+ too, the worst of it comes when I open the merc window or have tons of map effects/monsters on screen. It'd climb from 60-85 within seconds. I ended up undervolting the card so it doesn't go above 80 now, but the renderer still crashes no matter if it's dx12 or vulkan.

Hi guys, i found a possible solution... for now i am without crash for about 4 hours...

go to production_Config.ini file, localized in
"C:\Users\YOUR_USER\Documents\My Games\Path of Exile"

edit two lines in this file:

renderer_type=Vulkan
device_type=Vulkan


If you already changed in game the Dx12 or Dx11 to Vulkan, probably the "device_type" is already setted to vulkan... but "renderer_type" still setted to Dx12, so, change to vulkan in this file.

Besides that, i also changed the file to READ_ONLY, preventing POE to change without need.

i Hope it solve your problems. <3
