cpu at 95 centrigrade. | Forums

This game is running absurdly hot on my machine. My in match temp with all settings on absolute low was consistently over 90 centigrade. Even the menu runs it hot. I left it on the main menu while I went out for lunch and came back to 88 centigrade temps. After shutting the game down my computer quickly returned to 40 centigrade.
I'm using a gigabyte p37k with a cooling pad and the fans on maximum setting. I can run Battlefield 1 on medium at 70 degrees.

There is absolutely no reason the game should be running this hot, especially on the main menu.

Jesus dude , I wouldn't play then - You CPU shouldn't ever get that hot -
What kind of cooler is on you rig? I definately recommend getting an after market cooler if you don't have one - All in one liquid coolers are only like $100 or even less but if you continue at those temps , your gonna fry your CPU

oh, god, that's gonna be a dead CPU soon. U need to lower your overclock and check how much power you're inputting into your CPU. Even 70 is a bit high(but thats just IMO cause i don't want to fry my computer). jeez.

Hi Crinncor: I'm not sure why your rig is running so hot but it does seem dangerous. My setup is only average and it runs fine. If you believe it is due to an issue with running FH, please contact support and they may be able to help you look into what is causing your CPU to overheat so much.

It's a gamping laptop, a gigabyte p37k, sticking aftermarket cooling systems isn't a solution cuz laptop. The heating issue is specific to this game and this game only.


I made some more opservations. The heating happens regardless of graphics settings, and happens regardless of whether I'm in match or not.

I dropped my settings at absolute lowest and set the render scale at it's lowest. The game still heats up. I tried running the client and just leaving it at the menu, and it still heated up. Whatever is causing this it's not graphics related.
