GPU Temperature Spikes
Anyone getting massive overheating of their GPU, even with turning down the graphics and FPS limiting to stop it? I've got a 3080 TI and this game is melting it. Any suggestions on how to fix it would be appreciated!

Got some trouble with my 3080 too, and no change in graphic or setting seems to help.

like many game with 3080ti just limit fps to 60 and it will be ok... and wait the patch
i have 3080 RTX founder edition and for me it dead silence when i play i dont even hear the fans . maybe its only 3080Ti issue ?

Stay away from Unity engine games.
I can name only a handful of them that don't melt my liquid cooled 4090.

As soon as I saw this game is out, I knew this topic would come up again, and here it is.

And no, vsync and other obvious tweaks don't help, I'm getting Cyberpunk levels of temps with most Unity releases.

Best to enable the frames limit in the game options and set it to a value that's best for you.

First thing I tried unfortunately, it has not made a difference...

Enabling FSR will help with the heat.
Hopefully future patches will optimize performance.

I've had to turn on FSR and disable SSR and HBAO for normal performance in game but as soon as a cut scene happens temps skyrocket again.

Same SSR and HBAO settings caused same issues with Pathfinder 2 for me as well. But appears whatever the issue causing it is, it does not turn off in cut scenes. As soon as one starts temps spike, as soon as it stops temps drop back to normal.
Unity strikes again. This (not respecting FPS limits) along with memory leaks are some of the biggest issues with unity games. Both of owlcat's pathfinder games had the same issues, battletech had it, pillars of eternity and so on.

Limiting the Framerate seemed to fix it for me. But if the ingame version isn't helping, try forcing an FPS limit through the Nvidia control panel.

Limited frame rate makes no difference.

3080Ti and it is making it work overtime, whether I put it on low or high settings tbh.

Have you tried enforcing it through the Nvidia control panel? Unity engine is notorious for ignoring limits in game settings.

Yep, that's already in place too.

Were you able to add the game to the nvideo panel?
I can't even do that! Completely broken game!

I put mine down a bit lower, to 50 fps and that fixed it outside one spot in the starting area that was really stubborn(I am thinking the starting area is the least optimized since it was the area created first, the longest time ago, but that is just a theory).

It is a turn based game and you can't really tell a difference between 60 and 50 to be honest.
