[Dev] Overtaxation of PC Hardware

[weeble]

in summer i needed to keep game at 55-65% for playing this game, on top that a full box fan is planted into my pc blowing wind threw it 24/7 and still my cpu is at like 45-58degree's ...my gpu will hit 80-90's in a second without this. ...seriously i can run anything else easily heat wise is nothing. just this game.

The standard temperature of my cpu is 30-50 degrees after I'd applied thermal grease to the processer, before that it would sometimes reach excesses of 70-80 degrees. 40-50 degrees isn't really that hot for a computer. Heck, the human body is a constant 36 degrees.(or was it 38?)

My old Geforce 9500gt used to rise up to the temperatures you're experiencing, sometimes going into the 120 degree mark, which is where it'd automatically shut off my computer to stop a meltdown. Turned out the reason for this was because old Geforce 8 and 9's were installed with poor quality fans that quite often didn't even switch on when you turned on your computer, sometimes you had to poke the fan with something to make it spin (I don't suggest doing that though, putting your hand inside a live computer is very stupid and only stupid people like me do it)
My Geforce 210 doesn't even have a fan, it has some enormous almighty heatsink and somehow the GPU temperature now rarely goes above 60 degrees, even on FFXIV.

Awaiting for the damn Zambezis to be properly benchmarked...

Weeble, get a decent case.

They were lucky, my whole dorm caught on fire when I tried to play. :P

Yeah I look forward to being able to play more once it cools off outside.
