Crash on AMD 7900 XTX

Bug Report ID: #871941558

With this new patch I am getting occasional graphics freezes. The game client does not crash, graphics freeze, reset and game continues (and I occasionally die :D)

My computer is has the following specifications:
CPU: AMD 7800 X3D
GPU: MSI 7900 XTX
Memory: 64GB 6000MT DDR5
HDD: 2TB Western Digital 850x

Windows 11 24H2 - OSBuild 26100.4351

Display Driver: 25.6.1
I just recently did a complete driver update using Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to completely clear out the driver. Reinstalled a fresh download, problem persists.

Game settings:
It was DX11. Patch Reset to DX12 - Same problem persists.
Resolution: 2560x1440
Vsync: locked
Triple buffering: disabled
Engine multithreading: Enabled

The AMD driver has prepared a package to upload to AMD for analysis which I have done already. I have not attached it here in this public forum in case there is personal information embedded in it.

To update this thread - just experience another crash that took me out of the game completely.

Interestingly, I did have a popup dialogue box appear that references DX11 even though I am using DX12.



I never experienced anything like this prior to this patch.

Additional details - Event 1000 in the Windows Application log.

I will add one more reply to this thread for the sake of complete transparency.

at the time of the crash, I am running PoE Overlay in the background, I have Path of Building open on a second monitor, and I have Microsoft Edge open watching a YouTube video.

I am going to add one more time to this thread, and I hope to hear back from the devs.



This is the AMD Driver dialogue that appears after each screen freeze/crash.

I hope this can be please addressed. the game is completely unplayable because of the randomness of these crashes.

These issues started yesterday for me 6/25/25.
