New World and a NEW GPU!
According to reports from what I’m seeing, Amazon’s New World MMO is bricking people Graphics cards. I haven’t even tried this game on my system nor will I because I have other important things going on. JayzTwocents on twitter said:
I’ve now had the following GPU owners express they have had shut downs and failures with New World…
RX590
6800
6800XT
6900XT
3080Ti
3090
So once again, the issue definitely is with SOMETHING in the way the game New World is rendering. This ISNT a 3090’exclusive issue! PERIOD!!— JayzTwoCents (@JayzTwoCents) July 22, 2021
Fixing the MMO
Just cap your Frames Per Second to 60 or 70 at the most. It seems most are saying that is how to prevent the extra power draw from to your Nvidia 3060 or High GPU’s and stopping them from become bricks. Although it’s not just Nvidia but also AMD that seems to be having the problems. There are a few older cards that are also having problems with this but not to that extreme of bricking it. You should however be careful with this game and others and watching your heat and power draw using the MSI AfterBurner utility. Please don’t overclock your GPU while playing this game. Keep it at it’s defaults, that way you will less likely have issues.
Breaking: For people playing New World please cap your FPS.
This will help prevent any issues that people have been having with their GPU’s being fried.
Go to Settings > Visuals > Max fps > Set this to 60, this will bring the utilization back down. pic.twitter.com/mXGcyixFgi

Don’t be like other guys:
My 3090 GIGABYTE gpu lasted 20mins before my fans went to 100% power and my monitor black screened. Turned my PC off and back on and my card wasn’t broke, thankfully. Granted I had the default settings on, max FPS. Apparently that may cause this issue. Still scared to go back.

Im running a inno3d ichill frostbite 3090. Game makes it pull 350w, highest i have seen otherwise is 335w. No spikes in voltage, 61c gpu temp, 81c memory temp. Other than a slightly larger powerdraw, i have had no issues. Consuming 50% of my 5900x is weird though.

I’m a PC gamer and this is not it. On boot up New World is causing death for GPUs… They don’t regulate power draw to the GPU causing 400+w spikes instantly… It isn’t the end users fault when they decide to start a game without VSync and their GPU explodes… Like… What? https://t.co/ZhWUtNYAhM

I think I’ll wait!
It’s time to put that on the burner. I won’t say I haven’t thought about trying this game when I first heard about it but I have been rather busy the last few weeks with school and about to move into my new place. I thought I would wait and maybe try it out later this year. In any case, I am a little bit worried that if I did, my 1660 super would be fried. So I am going to wait and see what Amazon does when it finally does fix this bug if it is one or fix this issue. Happy Gaming all!
