PlanetSide 2

GPU fans going crazy whenever in-game UI is open
My GPU fans run at normal speeds when the UI is not open but when I'm in any kind of in-game UI my fans go crazy and eventually I crash to desktop.

By UI I specifically mean the map screen, death screen and character customisation screen.

I never really noticed this before because I've always had my fans set to a flat 33% line (this is what factory settings are for some reason...) but ever since I tweaked my fans to gradually increase with temperature they have been going wild my god.

I get stable 120 FPS at 1440p in low pop areas and 90 FPS in high pop.

Is this normal? Are any of you guys experiencing the same thing? Is there something I can fix on my end or is this Planetside rendering the UI at an ungodly 10,000 FPS or something stupid like this.

Also why does the game feel like 25 FPS at 60 FPS and 120 FPS at 120 FPS? If the game felt like 60 FPS at 60 FPS, I would 100% play it at 60 FPS because that would mean less load on my GPU.

I do not have any of these problems in other games.

They just add mtx and never optimize, for 10 years. Game has become burning trash
For now I'm uninstalling the game. I will install it again when someone can confirm and fix the issue I'm having on their own pc.

Disable it, if your fans run perma at 33% you will lose a lot of performance. System by itself should manage fans speed.

go to interface and spam kill feed untick it, try to remove things you dont need, if you can play the game without HUD even go ahead, it will boost your fps i think. rendering distance shouldnt be so high also infantry maybe 500m to 1km, land vehicles and air i set to 1km but its up to you how far, global at most put 2k
