Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
I’ll try to boot a different variety of games from the big picture steam menu and the moment I press play the shaders begin to load, but sometimes freeze my PC immediately. I tried clearing my cache and my download section and making all games loaded with proton experimental. I had gotten some progress where gears of war five got all the way to the campaign lobby and once I was trying to load into the game and actually move around and play, I get booted back to the main menu for Steam. I tried loading other games resident evil four works fine and boots no issue but other games like doom eternal will freeze my PC.
Steps for reproducing this issue:
- Download current Steam OS 3.8
- Download and play Gears5 or Doom Eternal
- Gears5 loads after clearing download cache(was freezing while PC beforehand) boot Doom Eternal (loading Vulcan shaders freezes PC)
Other games load like Resident Evil 4
My specs are Rog Strix B850-I,Ryzen 5 9600x, 2 TB SANDISK Optimus 7100 NVMe, Rx 9070 Xt OC gigabyte
