GPU overheating when in Menus

Product: STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor
Platform:Steam-PC
Summarize your bug GPU usage increases while in menus causing GPU to overheat
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Open Task Manager on separate monitor. Start Jedi survivor and go into game Notice GPU usage when in game Press Escape to open the Menus Notice increase in GPU usage
What happens when the bug occurs? GPU overheats
What do you expect to see? Game to use less GPU when in menus vs when in the game world. I don't expect my PC to overheat when rendering less than the game world.

User Interface is ticking too much causing the GPU to overheat even though framerate is sub 60

    @KannonFE 

    Your GPU should not be overheating at less than 60 FPS.

    You can use a GPU monitoring app like EVGA Precision or MSI Afterburner to monitor the GPU temperatures. 

    Your GPU may be faulty, especially if you see similar in other games.

    Thanks.

  • My GPU temperature is higher in menus compared to being in Gameplay by 2 C.

    This is not expected behavior as the Menu's should be rendering less than compared to in game.

    This means my PC load is higher when nothing is is happening

  • This issue appears to  be related to playing the game in windowed borderless mode. When in menus with fullscreen or windowed mode, the game uses less GPU processor time
