Re: Star Wars Battlefront 2 Overheats my new laptop Instantly on minimum settings

Thanks for replying.

I think that's a great idea, I wonder if it could actually work. However the game doesn't seem to recognize the "user.cfg" file, or take it in consideration. Every time I run the game, I still get around 120-200fps in the menu. So, still looking for solutions.

It sucks that Nvidia doesn't offer frame limiting options, at least I haven't found them. Even in the Nvidia Control Panel. The only time I kind of got the game to run at 60fps, was through GeForce Experience and its whisper mode, but that also limits the fan cooling so you still end up running hot.

Best solution I've had thus far was decreasing the "Maximum processor state %" in Processor Power Management in Adcanced Power Settings to like 60%. There seemed to be less heat for an extended time. But then after a while the screen would get a "little blurry" in technical terms, once I made sudden turns in the game controlling a character. No idea what was that all about, not enough power flowing to the processors? Maybe I'm just seeing things.

But yea give Nvidia inspector, I've seen some videos that it should help decreasing the FPS.

Thanks I’ll look into it. Decreasing the power flow to the processors has been quite good. I’ve contacted people at ASUS, updated my bios there seems to be less heat now.
