Hey pals,
I want to know why the video card isn't heating up while watching videos of COD in Youtube in HD 1080?
And when you're running COD game on 1080HQ the video card does heat up.
In both cases the quality of the images are almost the same, therefore it doesn't make any sense that the video screen doesn't heat at all, not even a bit.
What's the reason for that?
Thanks

A simple explanation :

The image from Youtube is a rendered file that is just being displayed to you.

When you play a game, the image is constantly changing and adjusting and rendered over and over and over again, your GPU needs to constantly update it.
