The Windup Girl
The Water Knife

Both by Paolo Bacigalupi - I’d describe both as ecological dystopian near-future sci-fi - both books are exceptional and based on Earth.

Thank you thank you thank you - this fix worked for me. Was sooo frustrating capping my fps to sub-50 to minimise the crashes (still crashed once a day). Last night after I patched my controller, I could run on full ultra settings (150 fps) and it was rock solid!
