My graphics card is overloaded.
What graphics cards are you using? My graphics card load has exceeded 80%, and the temperature has exceeded 57 degrees Celsius. Which parameters can significantly reduce the graphics card load?

try lowering some of the graphics i have a 1050ti and run it around medium. maybe turn overall graphics down and stuff like mirror quality or shading.

Okay, I'll try. Thank you. I found that when I turned on the motion blur, the load on the graphics card decreased a little.

Isn't 57 Degrees normal? I've read graphics cards can go up to 90 degrees.

Yeah 57 is definitely, perfectly within safe operation. You'd only really need to begin worrying if you were hitting the high 80's.

Also, OP, having high usage is ideal. Assuming you haven't limited performance via frame limiters or vsync then having as close to 100% usage across all primary components (CPU/GPU etc etc...) means you're running with as small a bottleneck as possible. As long as temps are fine then high usage does not increase failure rate of the CPU or GPU.

Can you just control the temperature? Don't care about the graphics card load?

I've turned on vertical synchronization and controlled the frame rate of the video card to less than 60.

If you're happy with the framerate that you're getting and the GPU is below ~80c then don't worry about the load on the card. If the load was low and you werent getting the performance you wanted then that's an issue. but 80% usage is perfectly fine, it could in theory even be higher unless you were suffering a bottleneck somewhere.

But yes, I believe you can set max temp targets using certain overclocking software (the names of the ones with said feature escape me). Where essentially the software will auto underclock your card if it reaches/surpasses a certain temperature. In that way you could control it via the temperature.

Again, 80% load is perfectly fine, especially since you say you have vsync turned on. And as long as the temperature isn't exceeding...say 84 degrees celsius, you could run it constantly at that level for forever basically.

Thank you very much for your advice. Now I can play the game safely.

Graphic Cards are made to be used. It's just a big waste of money to run a potent graphic card on small loads.

57% degree is perfectly normal, and when it's only 80% load you are actually in a CPU limit, not a GPU limit. (given that you didnt lock fps). No need to worry about any of that.

I have a GTX 750 Ti and have no temperature or overload issues. I run this game on mostly high settings except for shadows, car reflection, mirror, and crowd which I put on medium and the resolution on 1920x1080. I get about 50 fps average.

This is very low temperature for any graphics card. They safely go up to 90C. Start worrying when your GPU is hitting high 90C with fans spinning at 100%.

When you have GPU Load lower then 99% there is some bottleneck. Probably CPU. Or older game that cannot utilize all the power your GPU have.

Another thing: if utilization is only 60% then temperatures will be lower too. But with 99%-100% GPU Util then Temps are approaching tMax which is for newer cars a little lower then 100C. So with full Util, 80C is relatively "low" or normal temp depends on the GPU and how fast fans are spinning.

Went ham this year on a computer. Running an i9-9900k with the rtx2080 and it runs pretty relaxed on 1440 max settings. No performance issues there. I'm pretty sure graphics cards are meant to hit those temps. I never trip until it's hitting >90c

I have an RX570 and I am playing with 72FPS by 70C.
