Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General Overheating problem - Please help.

I run Heaven and my stock 760 is under max load and gets to 75 Celsius. This is designed to take your HW to the limit.

Running the game, in-out of combat, with spell effects on non-stop. 72 Celsius, 99% load. You can see D:OS takes your HW right to the limit like the bench Heaven does.

I do have my fan on variable speed based on GPU temp.

Seems normal.

I think what happens Pastilance mentions, some games tax the HW more and some HW is either aging, needs cleaned or just runs hot by design. If this game fails your HW it's ultimately on your HW because it should be able to take a 100% load. You may not like that because "all my other games run fine", but you would agree that your HW should be able to handle it's maximum load without failing, right? So additional cooling, under-clocking or new GPU is in order. Good or bad.
