Turning on MGPU and crashing afterward:
If you're turning on MGPU from the Video Settings menu, starting the game and finding that it crashes within the benchmark or playing, exit the game. Locate the settings.ini here and delete them:

If it still fails with MGPU enabled, but works with it disabled, please keep it disabled and follow the steps below for submitting a ticket.
