The bottom line is that at high speedThe rendering controller is trying to make the fan spin faster. This puts a heavy load on the power subsystem, as a result of which the graphics adapter simply burns out. In the case of the GeForce RTX 3090, the power consumption exceeds 400 watts.

A critical error occurs when the frequencyframes in the game exceeds 100 FPS. At a frequency of less than 100 FPS, jumps in the fan rotation speed also occur, but they are invisible to the user. Amazon developers have released a patch for New World, which allows you to limit the frame rate at the level of 100 FPS through the settings.
