Diablo 4 Nvidia Graphics Card Overheated

Diablo 4

A tip-off came from the North American community Reddit and Blizzard’s official forums that the graphics card overheated in the Diablo 4 open beta. Blizzard Entertainment said on its official forum that it would investigate the graphics card issue.

Blizzard Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as Blizzard)’s Diablo 4 conducted open beta early access for pre-purchasers from the 18th to the 20th. And from the 25th to the 27th, an open beta was held for anyone to participate.

However, stories that he experienced overheating of graphic cards in “Diablo 4” open beta early access and open beta spread around the North American community Reddit. During the beta test, the graphics card overheats, the cooling fan mounted on the graphics card returns to full speed, and the computer restarts. Some users said their graphics cards didn’t work at all after experiencing this phenomenon.

As the open beta, which anyone can participate in, began on the 25th, more and more users reported this. Users began reporting to Blizzard’s official forum following Reddit.

Taken together, this phenomenon seems to have occurred mainly with Nvidia’s graphics card equipped with RTX 3080 Ti. Then, some suggested that such overheating can be prevented by limiting the number of frames per second (FPS) in NVIDIA’s graphics card control panel.

As such reports increased, Blizzard and the official forum manager posted about them. The administrator said, “The ‘Diablo 4’ development team is investigating GPU issues mentioned online. We are working closely with Nvidia to identify affected hardware configurations,” he said.

The exact cause of this phenomenon has not yet been determined. In response, a foreign PC gamer said, “It is unlikely that ‘Diablo4’ is the cause of the problem. Diablo 4 is likely to have been a kind of “catalyst” that reveals weaknesses that already exist in the graphics card, it reported.
