Re: High CPU temps when i boot the game, back to normal after i join a match.

@BG-NILLx 

If your framerate is capped, it is possibly pinning 120 in the menus causing the temp rise. 

75C is fine though, you can run at that temp 24/7. 

Thanks.

  • There is no difference when i remove the FPS cap (using RTSS to cap my fps because for some reason there is no ingame FPS limiter like in BF5).

    Im aware that 75C is fine but i find it strange why its so high at the beginning and once i join a match it drops to 60 and stays like this even if i quit the match. Game is loading something at the start? Like when COD is rebuilding shaders when i open it.

    @BG-NILLx If you monitor each core you will probably see they all spike to 100% for a short time, same as Battlefront 2, whilst its either loading assets or data or compiling shaders (as you mentioned).

    There is no issue, yes the CPU gets a bit warm, but expecting the same CPU and temp across the full time the software is launched is insane.
  • imho the problem is that the loading screens are uncapped in frames

    when the game is loading a new map or you are going back to the menu after a round the frames are going up (even if you set a cap like vsync) with my RTX2070 I getting somwhat between 300-350 fps

    at this moment the fans are going up it seems that there is a strange “artificial load" load on the system

    in the main menu by it self and in the round the system is stable and works more in the normal parameters

    with temperature i have no prob with my i7-10700 (air cooled)

    this problem is there since release but was getting better with each patzch, put since 1.1.0 it is getting worse again
