Raptor Lake instability hits streamer Asmongold — Black Myth: Wukong shader compilation fails on stream

Asmongold reacts to shader compilation error in Wukong.

Raptor Lake instability issues have hit Twitch streamer Asmongold: A clip from Asmongold's Twitch stream (shared by OTKnetwork on X) shows Asmongold running the shader compilation process in Black Myth: Wukong, only for the process to spit out the infamous Unreal Engine 5 "out of memory" error.

In the clip, Asmongold is waiting to see if the game's shader compilation process will fail or not. At 24.59% the game shows the aforementioned "out of memory" error. Afterward, Asmongold restarts the game and runs the compilation process again to see if it will pass. According to OTKnetwork, "Asmongold and his chat are doing predictions together on what % Wukong game shaders will get to before it crashes". Each time Asmongold restarts the shader compilation process, the process crashes at a higher percentage.
