that the gpu's should not die from overload situations is one point, the other is that new world is just wierd even on the character select screen it is eating 96% gpu while in game its lower like what are they doing mining bitcoin while we sit in queue ?

still not sure why you think you "decide" what is or isnt overpriced.
last time i checked, thats up to the buyer
nothing prevented you to say "improperly/crappy.."
do love to hear from all those "only buying evga.."

As far as i understand, the uncapped menu problem was fixed during last beta, these new defective cards would be under normal gameplay.
I played 8 hours New World with my half defective Vega 64, no problem at all, it actually looked and ran surprisingly good on my hardware.

No problems here with my 2070 Super / max game settings, the game taxes the hardware just like any other modern game. Like the last post said, the beta added a 60fps cap in the menus and the loading screens so the release version should have cards running cooler while queuing. This game hit over 700k simultaneous users yesterday all playing (or queuing) at the same time, it wouldn't be surprising if a couple of those users cards just randomly died during that time. Those affected cards were obviously faulty with manufacturing defects and should be replaced if possible.

I've been playing New World and I suspect that part of the problem people are having with their cards is due to poor coding in the game. There are places in the game where the framerate will spike to almost 600 fps for me on my EVGA RTX3080 Black Gaming. Most contemporary games take care to not let that kind of thing happen. I usually use the Nvidia control panel to set an overall frame limit of 118, because my monitor has a 120hz refresh rate. But when I last updated my drivers through Geforce Experience, the framerate limit was reset to "off", despite the fact that I didn't do a clean install.

Intelligence took a nose dive on this forum. People blaming the game and developers... LMAO. The only ones to blame here are certain companies producing crappy, low quality, cost saving, corner cutting, bad QA graphics cards. All this game does is exposes how crappy your graphics card is. If it's not this game, then some other game will kill your defective card in the future.
