[Dev] Overtaxation of PC Hardware

[Elkwood]

Orly? Well I get 71C under FFXIV load and the card's max safe temp is 90C, so I guess I will live with it.

But hey, lets not worry about my temps, I am not the one crying that my PC is going meltdown.

Mines 50C after load but on a hot day yes its damn near 70 which is ridiculous I'm sorry but I don't build my PCs to watch them work that hard.

Bumping due to lack of comment from Mods or Devs

They already said it's being worked on.

That's good and all, as long as you don't demand that people design games based on your weird load-under-50% fetish.

With PC gamers usually overclocking their hardware, your suggestion that the game shouldn't get to 100% load just sounds ridiculous.

Even non gaming programs, like video or modeling software, can reach to 100% load. It's like asking your OS to not load because it uses RAM.

could care less what they said over 2 months ago many of us want to know a status update, being that they admit the code was messed up

ok...
Fine
Run Prime95, OCCT, Furmark and cinebench simultaneously for 30 days straight
according to your logic... everything will be fine

Ahahahhaha

So you want an answer...even after they already gave an answer? Even twitters of people from other companies don't constantly post updates lol. The last word is that it's hard to work with and they're going back and optimizing the source/engine.

Even on the Japanese update it still mentions engine optimizations are currently being performed (English: Is being worked on.) What more is needed? When there's another update they can easily find the thread and post. Bayo has zero problems finding topics he need to post in.

Creepy. I agree with all Jennestia said. ^

Then turn your settings down and quit complaining, physics doesn't bend at your whim. If you can't handle high temps and not being at the best settings then invest in water cooling. Each and every setting you turn on is going to increase load including AA/AF or VSync being turned off. The Idle temps on my stock 5870 is 55c and XIV can't push it over 80c at 33% fan speed for both, both of these are completely safe and designed by AMD to be running this way.

SE isn't going to make the game run cooler. Optimizing also means it will make more efficient use of the GPU/CPU keeper temperatures on average higher. Nothing they have ever posted has had any related to heat, only performance in general.

If you want to keep insulting the people trying to help you then enjoy your forum vacation.

Burn-in programs are specially designed to have their entire load on what it's being run on with no bottlenecks while completely saturating the Die on either the CPU/GPU. Games will never do this even if its trying to render a black screen at 2000+ FPS (voltage regulators cry when games do this) because of the lack of an FPS clamp and even then that's not as much as a Burn-in will do.

I think you want to just keep insulting people's intelligence on hypocrisy alone.

It's been a much discussed problem since beta forums...all you're doing is claiming normality with a burning house in the background...it's more or less already obvious.
