Game crashing my PC after 5-20 minutes
I really like the game, but can't play it for some reason. I have an i7-8700 and a GTX 1070. I've tried verifying the game files. uninstalling / reinstalling, lowering the graphics, updating my graphics card / windows drivers, running the game in administrator. I seriously don't understand why I can't play this game. Every other game I have zero problems, I can play red dead 2 for example for 10 hour sessions and not have a single problem. It is so frustrating cause I want to play this game and none of my friends have any issues except for me. Any tips on how to somehow fix this would be great. thanks

if you actually get to start the game and play for 5-10 minutes it sounds like faulty ram. Or overheated cpu. Or bad gpu drivers.
try updating chipset? i dont want to be one of those suggesting to run ramtest for 4 hours -.-
check windows event viewer for pointers in the right direction.
and btw. when you say crashing pc, how exactly does it crash. ctd? freeze? straight to restart, with or without windows logout?

But how can that be the case if it is ONLY for valheim? I play tons of other graphically intensive games with 0 problems. if you actually get to start the game and play for 5-10 minutes it sounds like faulty ram. Or overheated cpu. Or bad gpu drivers.

Computers are weird like that sometimes, I'm sure you agree the error is on your side and not the game.
Assuming you don't run mods and have everything else at normal. You need to find out what's actually crashing, the game is only following it.
Also the world you log into. Is it.. heavily built on? Multiplayer?
Same story for a new map?
