Long loading screens suddenly

Hello everyone.

Since yesterday, i'm experiencing very long loading screens going into towns/areas while leveling, going into Kingsmarch, etc. But by long, i literally mean 1-2 minutes long loading screens.

Only thing that changed on my PC is latest Windows security update installed on 14-11-2025 which i can't uninstall. As i can't think of any other reason why game would not load instantly.

I'm playing on Amsterdam, i literally live 20km from it.

I've tried swapping to other close servers: London, Frankfurt, etc..


PC specs:
9070xt
9800x3d
64gb ram 6000mhz


Anyone have a solution for this maybe?

Strangely enough, I'm having a similar issue. Happening to the Australian server and Kingsmarch is the worst.

Swapping to Auckland seem to solve.

It's related to the latest AMD adrenaline version which generally is auto updated. Downgrading to 25.10.30 fixes it.

Same exact issue since Friday night. extremely long load times out of no where in the middle of a play session

deleted cache/shaders didnt help

POE repair tool seemed to work for a few load screen then right back to loading for 5 minutes

reinstall client did not help

same result using texas Washington and Canada servers
last patch was 11/6. i played poe the entire week smooth with it. Friday night suddenly there was an issue
Guy was right. Downgrade AMD Adrenalin to lower version and it's working. At least for me.

I found this version:25-10-2

Make sure you use removal tool.

First remove previous drivers, install 25.10.2 and have fun

Thanks @W0rld1337#3746

thank you I was having problems with long loads and slow texture streaming. downgrading to adrenalin 25.10.2 has resolved the issue. 9060xt 16gb

edit 11/26: ive seen others having similar issues even on this driver so who knows.. but my game has been smooth
