New World Beta “Is Safe,” Amazon Says: Players’ RTX 3090 Cards Are Safe

Still, Amazon publishes a patch to reassure gamers who fear for their GPU.

The New World beta got off to a very good start this month. We are talking about the new MMO from Amazon Games, which added more than 200,000 simultaneous players at the beginning of its closed test and quickly positioned itself as the most watched game on Twitch . Still, not everything has been positive news for the beginning of its beta. As our colleagues from 3DJuegosPC reported yesterday, New World users claimed that the beta would have damaged their RTX 3090 cards due to overheating.

Specifically, these users claim that this specific GPU overheats in the game menu , which does not limit the FPS, thus causing errors on their card of more than 1,500 euros. Well, Amazon Games has responded to players stating that the fears are unfounded: the New World beta is safe , and in case there is still someone afraid to play it, they are going to publish a patch to limit the FPS in the menu and reassure to users.

“To reassure players even more, we are implementing a patch today that limits the FPS on the menu screen ,” they add. “We appreciate the support New World is receiving from players around the world, and we will continue to hear feedback throughout the beta and beyond.” So, if you have an Nvidia RTX 3090 and you were afraid for your investment to play the new MMO from Amazon, you can rest assured. New World will debut on PC on August 31 , and if you want to see it in action, in this other news you have 18 minutes of gameplays and interviews of the game .
