Game freezes after a few mins
I recently had an issue where my game would crash my PC every time I opened it, after a few seconds in the loading screen. After talking to the Riot Support, turns out the issue was that I had my game installed in my secondary drive, so I reinstalled it on my main drive and it opens correctly now. However, after a few minutes of being in the game, whether I'm in the main menu, in The Range, in a match, or even if I have the game minimized, my computer freezes completely and I have to reboot.
I already asked Riot about this but I'm also asking here if anybody has ran into this issue before.

Having this same issue. Ive uninstalled both the game and the client, made sure windows is up to date, closed any conflicting softwares, set priorities, etc. Cannot get this to work
@Blixer lmk if u have any luck
Riot Support told me the issue was likely the fact that my CPU is too old (which doesn't make sense at all, the game works perfectly fine until my computer freezes)
damn. And it didnt happen till this new update right? @Blixer
The time between the game opening and my computer crashing seems consistent though
oh
maybe we have a seperate issue. Mine is random, doesnt matter if im loading in game, in game, range, etc.
No idea, this is my first time actually playing the game
ohhh. What cpu do u have? do you know? @Blixer
first gen i7, specifically the Core i7 920
This is around 2 to 3 minutes
blixer i got news
that is a processor released in 2008
def the problem
I know
But it doesn't make sense how the game runs perfectly fine (even getting 120 FPS in high settings) and then just crashes lol
overloaded most likely
i mean u can try halting other processes that take up processing power
Not really
the 120fps mostly effects gpu
iirc it barely goes to like 40% usage when running the game
hmm
