How long no frezes? I also believed I had some workaround by doing some changes to settings and then after 3 hours freeze again..

Game runs butter smooth while playing but then the random full conpuer freezes at loading screen kills it.

Not crashing but the game is pushing CPU to 100% in menus and randomly in town causing CPU to overheat to dangerous levels.

Windows 10 64-bit
intel 10700k
rtx 3070

Hopefully this CPU issues gets looked at soon :(
Same here, full freeze on area change. Happened twice so far. Have to restart with power button.

Win 11
i7-9700
Board HP 8591
BIOS HP R01
Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080
Sound Blaster Z SE
4G internet through Phone /w USB
DirectX 12.

Will try switching to DX11 if it helps.
Loading new zones cpu reaches 100% usage and ~105C, then PC just shuts down. After loading in can play that zone and moving to new one same thing happens...

Windows 11 23h2
CPU: i9 12900K
GPU: RTX 2080Ti
RAMM: 32GB

P.S.
Loaded/played zones works fine, high fps no lag

People on reddit, steam, twitter and discord all report this issue.

4080 SUPER
Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Win 11 24H2

This issue was already a known problem in PoE1 with the latest Win11 24H2 version. 24H2 apparently changed things on the kernel level.

- most people run a combination of AMD X3D chips and RTX30 or RTX40 cards

- most people run Win 24H2

- the issues seems to be that the CPU cores all run at 100%, freezing up the system, unable to recover aside from hard reset via power/reset button

- people who are able to downgrade to 23H2, most of the time say it fixes the issue of the freezes

- some people say changing the renderer (DX11 or Vulcan) helped, but alot of people run into the same issue again later

- some people claim setting CPU Max to 98 in Power Option avoids the issue, with others saying it still crashes

- some people claim disabling 1 or 2 cpu cores in the taskmanager for PoE2, avoids the issue of a full PC freeze, but the game still freezes up

GGG ignored this issue popping up in PoE1, they are basically forced now to look at it.
Please Kieren_GGG add this issue to the "Known Issues (PC)" list because it basically makes the game unplayable for people affected by it.

It is not a real solution, but disabling the ingame engine multithread option before every load screen and the re-enabling it immediately after has been working for me.
