Cpu 14900k + Nvidia 5070, cpu at high usage and 20+ degree increase during play

I got the game when it started in early access and played it with no issues.

I’ve had my 14900k since Nov 2023 and have underclocked it from the box.

When I play games like arc raiders at epic + settings, my cpu never goes higher than 56 degrees.

The first 2 seasons of poe2 was the same.

But I fired the game up again a few days ago and it’s horrible. The temperature spikes to 75 degrees and my fans are at full blast.

Not sure what happened but it needs to be fixed.

Its the new (and broken) shader calculations, causses shader compile error and memory leak.

Its been happening to us all since the last 6 weeks and GGG wont even aknowledge they fucked up or fix it.

I mean even PoE1 still have performance issues and its out for years.
The problem nowadays is, they add DLSS or FSR and think these feature will take care of the performance. Like I said, the game needs to be well performed BEFORE considering DLSS or FSR.
I also figured yesterday, if enenmies attack with blood and adding like a debuf on you or your minions, then I drop from like 80 to 15 FPS.
I always thought they will take care of the performance, but after playing PoE1, I am actually scared.

But yeah, its been better since I created a bat file that I run after I close PoE that deleted any cached shader. This way the first start will take a bit longer, but I have always new compiled shaders. Maybe it helps.
