How does this happen?

Quote
Amazon's latest video game, "New World," has a potentially major problem: Some players say the game "bricked," or destroyed, their wildly expensive and hard-to-find graphics card, [A Nividia NVIDIA's RTX 3090 made by EVGA]

Ah, here's why & a suggested fix: https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/this-quick-fix-helps-avoid-amazon-new-world-s-gpu-killing-fiasco/ar-AAMoYQA?ocid=msedgntp

Quote
In New World, press the Escape key to open the Settings menu.
Click the Visuals tab.
Under Max FPS, cap the FPS at 60.

Players are reporting that capping the FPS is successfully preventing their graphics cards from overheating. It seems that the reason why New Worlds is putting GPUs at risk is because the menus don't have built-in FPS caps like other games do, causing elite graphics cards like the RTX 3090 to render the menus in 9000+ FPS and burn themselves out.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
