All Possible Diablo 4 Season 4 Crash Fixes

One of the biggest crashes in Diablo 4 Season 4 has affected those using an Nvidia 40-series GPU. Blizzard has officially acknowledged this problem, and a possible fix is to disable Frame Generation for the time being. This can be done directly from the official Nvidia GeForce Experience App. 

This solution seems to have worked for many using cards belonging to the RTX 40 series. Thankfully, there are a few more steps that you can take if you’re suffering crashes but using a different setup. 

  • Disable Ray Tracing: The updated client is currently in an unstable state, so until that is fixed, it’s better to disable Ray Tracing from the in-game settings. Ray Tracing increases the demand on hardware, and turning it off can allow for better performance. 
  • Updated GPU drivers: Make sure that your GPU drivers are updated to the latest version. Older versions can cause issues like stuttering, which can cause crashes. Updated drivers will ensure smoother FPS and reduce incidences of stuttering and crashes. 
  • Background apps: Often overlooked in the world of modern computing, having too many background apps can result in a lot of RAM consumption. Ensure that only the necessary apps are running in the background as you chop down enemies in Diablo 4 Season 4. 
  • Cap Foreground FPS: You can put a cap on the in-game FPS via settings. A higher FPS, while having its advantages, can also cause instabilities if your hardware isn’t reliable enough. Capping it to 60 FPS will give you decent gameplay while ensuring stability. 

It’s expected that Blizzard will push an update while the Diablo 4 Season 4 content is live. Make sure to update your in-game client to the latest version to reduce the problems. Season 4 has a lot of changes, and the Accursed Rituals during Helltides have been revamped.
