Temperature rises during gameplay in Apex Legends.
Temperature rises during gameplay in Apex Legends.
Hello, your setup shows a CPU temperature jump to 80 during loading in Apex Legends, but drops to 55-65°C while playing afterward. This behavior seems unusual and might indicate overheating or thermal throttling. The fact that it only occurs when you click the game suggests a possible sensitivity to startup or load events. Make sure your cooler is functioning properly and consider checking for dust buildup or fan issues.
A new install often rebuilds the shader cache a few times, causing brief slowdowns or reduced performance until it stabilizes. Watch for any unusual behavior from temperatures, but overall it should work fine. Enjoy your game!
your game runs at 300fps in the settings menu. you can cap it using the steam command "+fps_max 240" for instance, or try rivatuner (included with msi afterburner) to restrict frames if the in-game limiter isn't sufficient (just remember to set +fps_max 0 and let riva handle it instead).
It only occurs when I click the apex icon, after which it loads into the game. At that moment it reaches 75-80c, but once I reach the main menu it drops to 55c and stays there. The actual in-game spike temperatures are between 55-65c, which seems acceptable to me.
