Are they fixed the cpu overheating?
Hello guys

First time i've bought the Cyberpunk 2077 i've had a problem of the overheating cpu, now with the update i dont know if the problem persists and i dont installed yet, My pc Specs: Core I7 3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz, Nvidia GTX 1660ti, 16gb of Ram.
I love the game and i want experience the game with best performance with beautiful graphics and glimpse the beauty of Night City.

There are certainly settings you can tune to lighten the load on your CPU. Crowd density for example is a very CPU intensive setting. There are a few others, and you can look up Youtube videos that explain the settings and show the impact on temps and performance.

Personally I think this game still looks great even on lower-end hardware as long as you learn what the settings do. However, I don't think you're going to achieve the best performance at higher settings with your specs.

Your CPU lacks sufficient cooling which is not their problem to fix.

- Limit your framerate, as that's where most of the heat comes from, that I've noticed.
- Set crowds to medium or low.

Yup. In a nutshell.

your computer overheating is a YOU problem..................not a game problem. Make sure your computer / fan / cooling vents, etc are dust free.

Quite a few reasons why your CPU might be overheating the game is not one.

If your CPU or GPU is overheating normally means the cooling is inadequate, what you can try is taking your CPU cooler off giving it a good clean and replacing the thermal paste or buying a better cooler.

CPU overheating is your system issue, repaste it . I play with 70-71° on my 7950 X3D CPU and around 67-70 on my 4090. I would say it' pretty good in temperatures.

Nothing they can do and those older gen i7s run hot as hell mate. I recommend you do three things.
1. buy a bigger cpu cooler, 6 or 8 pipe, I recommend deepcool which was banned in the USA but you can buy it off ali-express, their products are cheap and better than 95% of the competition.
2. use ptm 7950 instead of thermal paste. One application will last over a decade but it's very tricky to apply so buy enough for 2 or 3 tries because if you're a noob you'll mess it up. PTM performs close to liquid metal without being.... liquid metal, it's literally your best option and relatively cheap.
3. try undervolting, follow a guide, this will reduce heat significantly.

Also do not worry unless you are over 85C for a long period of time, CPUs aren't the same of yesteryear they can take a lot of heat now, but I'd try and aim for stable 80 and under as a high mark.

That's on you to fix, as it's your hardware issue.

Bro has a 12 year old system that just barely meets the most minimum possible requirements and wonders why its hot.

Maybe change the old thermal paste? Clean the dirt out? That rig can almost vote so its probably time.

Core I7 3770 and 1660ti combines together = V(1660ti) using most poor cybernetics(I7 3770)

CPU overheating is an hardware issue. Always.

You see, your hardware has a certain performance range. The CPU can be run at up to 100%... of what it can be run.
A good application may be able to utilitze all of that, that the best case scenario. Requires quite some dev effort to get all the multithreading right.
Its your job as the system owner to ensure that you have enough cooling to run the system at 100%.
