THE FINALS

THE FINALS

View Stats:
The game warms up the processor
The game does not lag, everything is noticeable with fps, but if you look at the system data, you can see the workload by 80%, and the video card by 45%.
I don't think this is normal, because because of this, the processor heats up to 98 degrees, and the video card up to 75 degrees.
My characteristics:
Intel Core i7 11700k
32 GB of RAM
Nvidia RTX 3060ti FE
Windows 10 22h2 (19045.3693)

If someone is overclocking then I doubt they're technically illiterate to the point where they need a steam thread to explain temperatures to them. They're going to be already aware that problems with their overclocks may manifest in the future and will immediately look to fix it when it manifests. And even then.... Unless you've pushed your voltages to ridiculous levels, your temps should be under control with your provided cooling. Don't OC with an Intel stock cooler. Lol.

And stress tests are like the best way to test the stability of your OCs. What are you doing?
there's many ways of testing stability without using a stress test that puts your temp 20 degrees higher than literally everything else that you actually use it for

Not really though because you still won't know how your CPU will handle a more stressful scenario... You know... Just like OP here.

That's literally the whole point of "stress tests". To stress your CPU beyond normal use. That's literally the point. It's almost like you're afraid of pushing your CPU which is nonsense and very noobish. Honestly you have a lot to learn.

Nah it's from experience. You can go ahead and do your 48 hour stability tests all you want for 2% performance and 99.999% of the time you'd be stable anyway without it LOL

If it was from experience as you say, you'd already know that an unstable OC can appear stable for a long time until a problem starts manifesting itself later and then you'd make a thread like OP and look dumb.

I'm not the one with a problem on my rig, unlike others here.

I have same issue. My cpu is burning when playing this game

The people saying that its an overheating issue are wrong. The only way it'd shut that way is if you had literally no cooler. Under normal circumstances it'll start thermal throttling long before it gets to the point of complete shut down (which 99.99% of the time you'll never actually get to).

The most common cause for shutdowns from what I've seen have been either unstable overclocks or having a bad motherboard/ram and needing to turn off XMP. You should try those before crying to the devs about a supposedly broken game.


Tell us you dont know what you're talking about without saying you dont know what you're talking about some more... lol. Yes, especially if your bios has safety features built in, it will shut down at certain temps.

Anyone asking for help here probably isn't overclocking. The community here is about as smart as a block of cheese as a whole.
I never said that exceeding certain temperatures doesn't shut down your PC, infact I said exactly that, just not under normal circumstances.
The thermal throttling features of modern CPUs usually get the job done just fine. You can find several videos of people running benchmarks on modern CPUs with NO cooler and they actually tend to run for a fairly modest amount of time until they shut down. If you have literally any cooler it will basically never shutdown. You could probably even use a $5 cooler from aliexpress with no thermal paste and it'd likely be able to last at the very least 10 hours of sustained load before it shuts down.
Hell, one of the older intel macbooks had an issue where the airflow from the fans would basically never touch the CPUs heatsink, and that thing NEVER shutdown, it just thermal throttled like hell.

You'd REALLY need to be trying, or be super negligent, to have your CPU shutdown from overheating.

i get a temp of 100C*, for example i play games like cyberpunk and more on highest settings and i have a constant temp between 60-80C* ?wtf is going on with this game

It's still your cooling though.

The last statement is the problem, especially with people that ask for PC support using steam as the venue. The AVERAGE user doesn't monitor any of that or even know they should, let alone know how to. Half these people are children. With that, the game has a severe issue with controllers being plugged in and it cranks your CPU in to full Special Jack mode and even with a VERY solid cooling solution temps reach 85-90 (by very solid, in my case I mean a lapped/360 rad water cooled custom setup, not an AIO) Someone running on air is boned. The heat doesnt climb, it spikes. I can watch my temps INSTANTLY go from 60 to 80+ with that problem by simply plugging in a controller and back down by unplugging it. Yes the CPU SHOULD throttle in time. In a world where all components were made equally and perfect that would be what happens, but its not. Yours might handle it, his might not. Being so educated in these things you should know that.

Idk what kind of CPU or cooling system you have, but the box cooler that came with my 5600X easily keeps it at 80-85 degrees nor has it ever thermal throttled, let alone shutdown, and I've owned that thing for atleast a year without cleaning it. I've also tried out playing on controller and didn't notice any thermal throttling, idk what were the exact temps since I've never really had the need to check them.

But anyway besides that, sure some CPUs of the same model may run hotter than others, but having one where thermal throttling doesn't work properly is very rare (from what I understand it's basically equivalent to winning the lottery), and a defect, and should be turned in for RMA right away.

You really need to read through the threads to get some context before you open your mouth and look like a fool.

Thats about all the response you deserve.

I don't think anything I was responding to or saying needed any extra context, but sure whatever man.

Id suggest rereading and working on comprehension skills then. Never did I say I was having a problem other than the very well known and documented controller issue, which, I was the first one to start spreading the bandaid for that until its patched. Even with that issue, I dont throttle, it just gets hotter than it should/and I would like to see. YOU running at 80-85 isnt dangerous, but it is very high.
KripTed Dec 12, 2023 @ 12:25pm 
Is Enhanced Turbo Boost enabled in the BIOS? If so, yeah. Your CPU will hit in the 90’s with this game. If it’s on. Set it to auto and your temps will drop down to 60-70’s. If it’s not on then you need to check your airflow or add more fans. Re-apply thermal paste and reseat the AIO. It could be possible that you have a faulty AIO or it’s dying. You could also set the fan curve in your BIOS. I had the 11700k before and I don’t recall temps ever getting that high. The last time my temps spiked up that high was with an intel stock cooler. As well as when my AIO was making funny sounds and dying.

I understood you perfectly fine, it seems like you're the one having comprehension issues here.
