[desmike]

yeah 30c idle and about 60c when its running

 

[4745454b]

What about the cards temps?

 

[ilysaml]

@ OP, try to disable Hyperthreading in the BIOS, a lot of members experienced this problem with BF3 specially and they seem to run it fine with HTT off.

 

[desmike]

OH OK WHERE WILL THAT BE IN BIOS WOULD IT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH MY OTHER GAMES LIKE RIFT AND WOW AND MY CARD TEMPS ARE 35 IDLE AND 63 RUNNING

 

[ilysaml]

Where in BIOS, i don't know since i never had an intel system. As far as i know Hyperthreading is utilized by multi threaded applications more than games.

You might find it in the Advanced BIOS Features or the Intelligent Tweaker.

 

[desmike]

OK MAN THANKS BUT DOES THE HYPERTHREADING AFFECT OTHER GAMES TOO

 

[ilysaml]

I told you

As far as i know Hyperthreading is utilized by multi threaded applications more than games.

So there shouldn't be any sort of problems

 

[desmike]

oh ok sorry im out of it today is there anything else i can do i have my system oc to 3.7 btw

 

[ilysaml]

No, just try the game and report back.

 

[desmike]

YEAH I COULDNT FIND THE HYPERTHREADING IN BIOS WHEN I BOOTED MY COMPUTER

 

[amuffin]

Press F9 to get into bios...............and chill out with the caps......

 

[desmike]

[desmike]
