Dragon Age Veilguard PC crash

My DA Veilguard keeps crashing and is practically unplayable. I have tried everything I can think of but nothing seems to work. It took me three seperate tries to get through character creation before my monitor went black and my PC wouldn't turn off. Each time this happens I have to switch it off by the mains because nothing else works.

 

All drivers are up to date
Windows is fully updated
Antivirus software is operating well
Updated BiOS
Verified integrity of game files
Set game to run as administrator
Reconfigured preferred setting in NVIDIA control panel
Deleted shaders in local files
Soft reboot my PC
Cleared cache and flushed DNS

 

I am at a loss.

freezing

    Update: what fixed it for me was uninstalling it completely ( steam version ofc), restarting the game and deleting shader folder

    same here. PC freezes after starting the game. it freezes in start-screen and I have to restart the system manually. 

    this sucks because I had this issue after release, after patch 1 and after patch 2.

    the first solutions were to delete shader cache folder. but after patch 2 nothing works. I changed all configurations, updated all drivers, tried everything. nothing helped. all other games are running fine. 

    I played about 14 hours and cannot be refunded. it seems to be a common problem with the i9 14900k or Z790 or Windforce RTX4080 super.
