my gpu isn't manually overclocked, and I don't have an issue with any other games
No idea. I was able to quit the game just fine and everything returned to normal, It was just the game glitching out
nope, never happened outside of APB, unless its just a huge coincidence my GPU has started to die as soon as I started playing APB, but I kinda doubt that.
see above. to be clear, I have a gtx 980 running the game at 1440p. I've played much more demanding games than APB. I get ~80fps uncapped, but cap the fps at 60fps.
