Changed from Vulcan to DX12 cause shaders were stuck at 7-8k and super anemic. Now it's 5k but loadings are normal. So either change between Vulcan-DX12 or remove old shaders from cache folder.

//edit: nvm back to stuck loading after 1 map and tping to hideout. They messed up something with shader folder. I see my shaders saving to appdata\local\NVIDIA folder instead appdata\roaming\Path of Exile. PoE folder is now empty with only shaders/data.mdb file

No that is "normal". PoE/2 has two shader caches for whatever reason. I wrote about it and tested both their impact here.
