Photoshop Crashing

I have this same problem at the moment and I wrote it also in here:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-bugs/ram-overload-and-out-of-memory-ram-errors/idc-p/15627653#M130443

So at the moment I think that the cause at least in my case is this, I have NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti graphics card and there is a memory leak issue with the graphic gard and camera raw version 18.0. Why an earth there isn't any older camera raw version I can install. Or if I revert back to the older photoshop versions, the older camera raw version follows? So now I just wait that this gets fixed or I buy a new graphic card.

Crashing is nearly always GPU-related, and the most common reason for crashing is conflicting dual graphics. That's mostly a problem with gaming systems and/or laptops. Gaming has very different requirements from the hardware. The general advice is to disable the integrated GPU in the operating system.

Each new version relies increasingly on the GPU, and new graphics code can bring out latent problems.

The system info should shed some light on that. In the meantime, also try a complete reset of preferences. Move the whole Photoshop 2026 Settings folder to your desktop so a new one can be built*. The preferences contain the whole application configuration, not just your own user settings. Corrupt preferences usually look like application bugs and are often mistaken for that.

As always, save out your custom actions, brushes etc first.
