Ray tracing issues

[喵咪银行]

When I turned on ray tracing and arrived at this place in Novogre, my game started to turn like this, it started to get stuck, and it crashed...
Has anyone encountered this problem before？

Did you try to clean install your drivers in case?

NVIDIA
I. Download the latest drivers using the following link: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
II. Download Display Driver Uninstaller and run it to remove previous versions of drivers.
III. Clean install drivers that you've downloaded in step 1.
AMD
I. Uninstall your graphics drivers using the AMD Cleanup Utility software.
II. Download and clean install the latest drivers from here: https://www.amd.com/en/support

Did you try to clean install your drivers in case?

My GPU is 6800xt. Yes, I have tested it on several versions of the driver, including reinstalling the game, and the results are all the same. All settings are set by default without any mods

Annoying
So the game crash only with RT enabled? Without RT, no crash?
If yes, quite strange and not "common" as far as I know (on the forum at least)
If you didn't, you should directly contact the support ("contact us" button). The sooner, the better.

Could be a CPU issue, the threading is still utter garbage in this game and especially in Novigrad you'll be severely CPU bottlenecked because it's trying to run everything on one or two threads. This is a problem only the developers can fix because we don't have access to the game engine's threading. Ray Tracing only increases the load on the CPU which is why these issues really show up when RT is enabled.

This game should not look worse AND run considerably worse than Cyberpunk but it does
