What's the ambient temperature when you play?

i dont know if my pc has that on it to see what operating temp is

so upgraded to msi 1060 video cardand now i cant even get the game to boot at all, just crashes at the load screen

what should i check next? this is getting a bit ridiculous

I'm by far a computer expert. However, I can see a couple issues from your specs. 223 gb for a SSD isn't much at all. You should be able to get a TB or 2 for cheap as an external plug and play drive. Also, after updating your GPU, are you noticing any other issues? Sometimes Drivers for the new one need updated or you have software trying to read the old drive that's not there anymore

I have a couple of questions. How much space to you have left on your SSD and did you download and install updated drives for your new graphics card?

i uninstalled, reinstalled the driver it says its the most current and in working order

im sort of feeling like its a settings thing but i have no clue what i should look for there
if i put all the settings to the lowest it will load but its not a full screen its a tiny window to play from

What you're looking for is your C:/ drive. Considering the age of your PC I'm assuming you're either using Win 7, or in that range? If you go to start on the bottom left, and then in the menu look for "My Computer" or "This PC." This is a screenshot I got online but it should looks something like this. Grab a screenshot of your drive and post it here.

Some help from a friend identified the ne video card as 8 pin and my pc has 6
But there are adapter cables for this

a 1060 pretty low still, but i understand GC expensive lots of jahs. The at or the ram or CPU. If you are on Nvidia then you can push Alt R and get the overlay and get temps posted on the overlay. I would

Cap FPS at 60 and see if that solves it, or look at specie and watch your temps as you play.

Min Recommended specs CPU: Intel Core i5-9600K / AMD Ryzen 5 2600 or better
RAM: 16 GB
VIDEO CARD: 6GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT
DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 6 GB
PIXEL SHADER: 5.1
VERTEX SHADER: 5.1
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
FREE DISK SPACE: 30 GB

So you have a CPU that is very old, when was the thermal paste replaced last? The GPU is not being recognized, and the old GPU is barely meeting the specs, and Ram is not the min recommended. Now you can run D2r not ROTW on lots of gear i had it running on a intergrated graphics Ryzen 3 7000 seriers laptop with only 8 gb of ram but would only really run well in legacy graphics mode.

Best of luck to you please reach out if you want to go deeper into hardware, but your hardware and no offense intended is quite older. It might be time to

Charsi it.
Yes if the GPU was not getting the proper power that would do crashing. May want to upgrade your Power supply to have an actual 8 pin PCI.

That should be fine. A good rule of thumb is to leave about 20% of the drive unused.

I’m taking the desktop to a friend that knows what he’s doing tmrw he thinks since it only happens at specific moments
Either ram is bad or cpu overheating
