3.0 crashing due to DX11 issue

I've been having this same issue as well. I have a 980ti and I'm up to date on drivers. I've formatted my HDD and freshly installed windows and it's still an issue. I'm fairly certain at this point it's a DX11 problem AND a Nvidia GPU problem.

Most games run just fine, especially intensive ones like Doom.

I can play PoE ok using DX9, but the moment I switch it to DX11 the screen goes black for a minute and I get the error

"Application has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware"
Application PathOfExile_x6 has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware.

Guys can you try older drivers as I suggested above.. e.g. 382.53
BTW I had a repeated game crashes when entering specific location and found out its sound related issue. Some sounds are bugged or st. Might be only on certain Asus soundcards because the issue doesnt seem to be very frequent, but still few ppl have it.

PLS. FIX IT GUYS!!!!SAME HERE STILL USING AN OLD PC AND IM DYING I EAGERLY WONNA PLAY & STILL WAITING FOR HOW MANY DAYS FROM NOW JUST TO BE FIX....

I have just finished working about 40 hours in the past 2 days, so I haven't had time to test the older driver yet. I don't have an ASUS sound card, but I will also check that out if the driver doesn't help.

Same issues!!

same issue

with a EVGA 1080 classified

Do me a solid and see if setting it to Windows 8 compatibility changes anything. It helped with a different crashing issue on windows 10. I may point to an issue with windows and PoE.

I don't know if this has completely fixed it (I haven't played enough to say for sure) but I added the garbage collection tag to the launcher "-gc 1". It allowed me to enter the ruined square, which I had not been able to do at all prior to adding the option.

Hi,

I had the same problem with newest Nvidia drivers crashing in Windows 7.
I tried DX9, but I could not stand the lagging, so I tried to downgrade to v. 382.53. I played all yesterday with DX11 without any crashes.

Crashed twice died 89/86 gonna stop playing for now, this is just ridiculous i had 0 problems prior to 3.0, i wont be playing the game until they fix this shit i play only HC so dying from something i have no control off well sucks.
