The Amazon also responded quickly to the New World: video card killer case, but it will no longer help those who have spent a lot of money on a high-end video card…
The Amazon MMO, the New Worldto subredditjén some have complained that the beta of MMO is able to cut the video card of our PC to the floor. This mainly affected those who Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090have. And this is not exactly a cheap video card: compared to Hungary, you taste at least 800 thousand forints. One tweet Gladd’s EVGA video card is out of beta and others have experienced similar bugs and warns everyone and PowerGPU suggestedto limit the frame rate to 60 under Settings> Visuals> Max FPS…
Nowadays, a program isn’t expected to be a line of code that kills video cards, but in this case, Amazon seems to have simply looked into it: FPS was unlimited in the menus, and the RTX 3090 video card (mostly made by EVGA) simply received so much speed. that it, like the victory song, simply flew away because too much energy could have been absorbed (it was maxed out, overloaded…). And this can be quite painful, especially in the video card-deficient period (which is why the prices are in the skies, especially in Hungary…).
But here too, PCGamer received a announcement, but this time from Amazon. In this, the company writes that hundreds of thousands of players have tried out the closed beta of the New World and brought together millions of hours of play. They received some complaints from players with high-end video cards who ran into a hardware failure. New World uses a common, standard DirectX approach to the Windows API, and the company does not see a major bug in the RTX 3090 GPUs, be it in beta or an alpha test lasting several months. .
New World’s closed beta is safe, but to make sure Amazon goes, a patch will be released for the game, which will limit the frame rate in the menus. The company is grateful for worldwide support and will continue to listen to player feedback after the beta.
But we would still ask, how could this have happened at all…?
