Update 5:15 PM EST: Amazon told IGN that a patch is being rolled out today in response to claims that New World was causing certain RTX 3090 GPUs to brick: 

 

"Hundreds of thousands of people played in the New World Closed Beta yesterday, with millions of total hours played. We’ve received a few reports of players using high-performance graphics cards experiencing hardware failure when playing New World.

 

New World makes standard DirectX calls as provided by the Windows API. We have seen no indication of widespread issues with 3090s, either in the beta or during our many months of alpha testing.
