RTX 40 Series & Beyond: How to Fix Crashes in Diablo 4 Season 4

Diablo 4’s Season 4 unleashed a wave of excitement, but for some players, it brought a wave of crashes instead. Fear not, brave adventurers! This guide equips you with solutions to vanquish these technical woes and get you back to slaying demons.

How to Fix Diablo 4 Season 4 Crashes

If you wield an Nvidia RTX 40-series GPU and face crashes, fret no more. Blizzard has pinpointed the culprit: Frame Generation. All you have to do is open the Nvidia GeForce Experience app and disable Frame Generation for Diablo 4.

This solution has proven effective for many RTX 40 series users. But what if you possess a different graphics card? Don’t despair, for there’s more to the troubleshooting arsenal.

  • Turn Off Ray Tracing: The Season 4 update might be causing temporary instability with Ray Tracing. Deactivate it from the in-game settings to improve performance and potentially eliminate crashes.
  • Frame Rate Capping: Limit your in-game FPS through the settings menu. While high FPS offers advantages, exceeding your hardware’s capabilities can lead to instability. Capping it at 60 FPS ensures smooth gameplay while minimizing crashes.
  • Background App Management: Background applications can gobble up valuable RAM. Close any unnecessary programs before launching Diablo 4 to free up resources and potentially prevent crashes.
  • Updated GPU Drivers: Outdated graphics drivers can create issues like stuttering, which can lead to crashes. Head to your GPU manufacturer’s website and download the latest drivers for optimal performance and crash reduction.
