When running one instance of the game I've noticed no issues with my pc. If I load up a second account I can play for about 2 hours before it hard locks my pc, with consistent performance drops before; hangs/freezing etc. If I load a third copy I can only last about 30 mins. 64gb ram and 256gb page file (four times the size of your ram is a good page file buffer if you can spare the space). I've tried to pinpoint why and how it's crashing the pc but when monitoring everything there is nothing that is blatantly obvious causing issues. Memory never goes over 90% even with 3 copies, temps are stable across the board. I'm genuinely stumped as to what causes the issues, but there has to be something common with everyone that's been having issues. I'm still not ruling out a memory leak with the game even though Blizzard swears it's been fixed since season 5 I believe.

My game has started to freeze when loading into a new zone. Only happens every so often

Is that similar to this?

so according to all this information its 101% on blizzards side and not ours ... at least that is good to know. I guess it is like this in almost all types of games..
some people have problems, but most people do not i guess... its super annoying but we have to live with it.

what are you peoples CPU and GPU temps playing this game?

i have standing in town around 63-68 if lots of people moving around OR im smashing pits i have around 73-79 degrees on CPU.

GPU is around 60 or 64. Thanks.

It's cold in the house in Wisconsin this time of year :P but yes that cpu temp is usually much higher as the 7800x3d runs stupid hot (it's only 62F in my house atm so ambient temp is low helping the pc- also liquid cooling the cpu)

Breakdown for the software I'm running -

GPU Temp#1 = GPU primary temperature (rounded up)

GPU Temp#1 = GPU Memory temperature (rounded up)

GPU Temp#3 = GPU hotspot temperature (rounded up)

Disable ray tracing. First and foremost.
