Re: Why is TS4 overloading my PC?

@AceofCalicos I'm guessing the sound you are hearing is the fan on your video card which may run faster when using graphical games. If it is dusty it may be running slower then needed. When was the last time you checked all the fans to make sure they are free of dust and gunk (for lack of the better word). If the fans are dirty they will run harder and harder until they freeze and then something usually gets too hot and the computer shuts down or a component destructs. A computer should be checked at least once a year (more if you have real pests).

    Make sure your computer can breath, make sure it has free space around the fan, and also give the fans a clean. 

    That might cause the weird sounds you hear.
