Hi @stonebullet9566

Based on the information within the logs, it appears that AMD Radeon™ Vega 8 Graphics is set as your default GPU, as opposed to your NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650. This is consequently resulting in your crashes in Vermintide 2, as the AMD Vega 8 Graphics cannot handle the demand.

Please run through the solution steps below:

  1. Right-click the desktop and select the ‘NVIDIA Control Panel’
  2. Navigate to ‘Manage 3D Settings’ > ‘Program Settings’
  3. Locate Steam within the list of programs
  4. Within the ‘Select the preferred graphics processor for this program:’ dropdown, choose the NVIDIA GPU
  5. Then locate Vermintide 2 within the list of programs, and repeat the above step
  • For Windows 10 users:
  1. Navigate to ‘Settings’ > ‘System’ > ‘Display’
  2. Select ‘Graphics Settings’
  3. Select the ‘Browse’ button and locate the Vermintide 2 executable (Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Warhammer Vermintide 2\binaries)
  4. Select the ‘Options’ button
  5. Choose ‘High performance’ and save your changes

Let me know how you get on!
