I have an Nvidia GTX 980 and I noticed the game was a bit choppy. I opened Nvidia Experience and optimized PoE and started it from there. Works great, everything moves nice and smooth. Not sure if this will help others, but it can't hurt to try if you have an Nvidia card.

Cant be true, nvidia havent add PoE 64 executable to the driver profile.
You have to do it manually with Nvidia inspector, a third party program, unofficial.
Also nvidia experience is a true piece of spyware that sucks ressources for no reasons. uninstall it.






for the crashes

64 bit client will crash if you have less than 3/4 gb ram and use high textures, use lower textures or 32 bit instead. Do not use the 64 bit client with a 32 bit OS. Use middle/low texture with 32 bit client.

For best performance, multi thread should be enabled with dual core/processor or better.

DX11 wont run properly on old hardware from before 2009 era. But some INTEL integrated graphic chipsets have difficulties too.

Do not forget to install the DX11 libraries, even if you are on windows 10 or 8.
Use a standalone installer and not the windows online checker.


Amd GPUs are better than nvidia for ultra high resolution or when injecting an insane amount of pre-post processing, because of the 512 memory bus , while nvidia use a 384 one.
I'm extremely unhappy of my 980 Ti about this problem.

Amd gpus also have a better texture filtering at very very very far range for 3d scenes showing infinite-like horizon. The Nvidia optimizations are totally perceivable in thoses situations and it's a shame. Unfortunately thoses optimizations arent removable because it's done internally in a hardware way.


And yes, nvidia has better fps, and yes amd has a better picture quality, it's often not perceivable, especially in post processed games. But on a flat infinite texture, the quality is clearly better on amd side. So old games like Gunz the duel will look slightly better on AMD!

you are fakenews.

AMD cards sucking with PoE shouldent be news to anyone

been that way for some time

AMD GPU user since years, no problems whatsoever. You Nvidia fanboys amuse me every day. :) I always wondered what benefit you have, by talking bad about a company?

Dunno about any crashes yet as I just started playing, but the 1st thing I could notice between x11 and x9 was those:

Directx 11

Directx 9


Directx 11

Directx 9


Anyone else had something similar? If so, did you find what made it happen?

Pretty sure that blurring is due to dynamic resolution - which is crap - just turn it off.

Thanks Vermin, I wasn't the only one who was having this "issue", some friends too but sigh, noone of us could check that before.

Thanks again, it's back to normal on Directx 11.

I'm running this game on maxxed out settings with dx11 on a GTX 1070 and I'm getting 250-300fps. No issues there.

Only issues I get are random 200-2000ms ping spikes on an internet connection that's a 99.5% stable 40-60ms connection with every other game.

Edit: just out of curiosity i tried dx11 with multithreading at it surprised me that I get the framerate I used to get before legacy league and without multithreadong I have the FPS I had with it last league (I mean I had horrible perf with multithreading alst league and now I have horrible without it but usable with it, so not sure what to think now), so strange actually I can play the game if I use the multithread lol.

Found this to be correct

Something has also changed at about yesterday evening on the 15th August 2017

Repeated crashing, usually when using fast attacks with accompanying graphics such as LS.

Eventually crashes, max up time was about 15mins.


Switching to DX9 has resolved this.



Tryng DX11 again.

Ok pc spec is old
2009 cpu i7
3Gb windforce gpu
16Gb mem
SSD 64bit OS

no issues prior to yesterday!
