In certain fights of Manaforge Omega (Noticed it in Soulbinder Naazindhri & Foreweaver Araz) I am having constant GPU crashes which looks like the game is frozen and then eventually starts rendering again (annoyingly most of my UI scale is changed until after combat).
This does not occur in M+ or Open World.
The event viewer shows Event 153 for nvlddmkm Error each time this occurs.
Attempted to go down to 1 monitor from 3 and using the in game Raid graphics setting down to 1 but it made no difference.
GPU is an RTX 3080 on latest drivers (580.88)
OS is Windows 11 Pro 24H2

There was a new Graphics Driver (580.97) which I will install but wont be back in those fights until next week.
Getting the same thing - except the graphics card locks up and doesn’t recover. The game is still running (I can hear sound in the background) and the PC is still usable but not updating the display. I end up having to hard reboot to get it to recover. Sometimes I can zone in fine and then it locks up, others I don’t even get to see the raid load - it locks up at the end of the loading screen.
Outside this raid (open world, dungeons, delves and other raids) are all absolutely fine.
4070ti, same issue, it recovers but its hell, updated drivers today same thing doing lfr have my 2nd night or guild raid later today.

Also seeing this, mid pull on every boss
I wish more people were seeing this really hoping for a resolution by next reset 
(I don’t know how it defaulted to Rhyperior my old druid who has been offline in undercity for nearly 20 years lol had not logged into the forums in a while.)

Identical experience for me as well, my guild decided to skip killing final boss in normal and had this happen all night on this boss in heroic -.- not fun.
Also experiencing this. Nvidia 4070ti Super (Asus Tuf,) driver version 577.00. Might try updating as I think I’m a little behind, but based on what others are claiming here I’m not convinced it will help much lol.
Issue was identical to what is seen in Mirumage’s video - freeze, game reloads all models back in slowly with weird geometric shapes/shadows on ground briefly. Notably, it also froze my Youtube video on my second monitor.
EDIT: And just to add, I was playing on Ele Shaman at the time.

Same for me on a 2070 Super, not even tied to be in fight, even happened before a boss pull or out of combat during trash clear.
Only “area” where I didn’t seem to have issues were the two boss fights outside (DH Council & Crystal Wall Boss) and probably Dimensius, but not sure on that.
Don’t have these issues anywhere else in the game.
yeah, mine happens anywhere not just in a boss fight too. and now that you mention it I dont remember it happening in the outdoor area either… it probably has to do with the textures/tubes/electricity or something from inside manaforge
Same it happens only inside the raid no where else in the new patch or anywhere all xpac long anywhere else, in or out of combat. Seems worse in that boss room but its happened in the main area with trash and other bosses as well.
I am unfortunately having the same issue. Everything is fine until the portals beyond the first boss. Pressing the special action button to ride them causes my entire PC to freeze. I can move the mouse on my second monitor, still hear audio for a bit, but then everything is frozen. The only way to resolve this is to restart my pc
I do not believe this to be a hardware issue, as I have tried on another PC in my household and have the same issue.
I noticed last night that my GPU was being maxxed even with raid graphics settings set to 1. I thought it was a Weakaura or something because I first started to notice it on Fractilus and that’s a weakaura fight, but I’m pretty sure it isn’t that because the WA is pretty non-graphic intensive. I sit at about 25% GPU for the rest of the game.
I have a 4070 for reference.
FYI I changed my graphics from DX 12 to 11 and the graphical issues in the new zone went away. Hoping this might fix the crash in raid (will find out tuesday)

This seems to have fixed my problem as well. TY
Had this problem last night. I was thinking “Seriously? My computer is new…”
Thank you for this. I thought the graphical lines were part of the zone.
