CalvinDu Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 So you blame BioWare because you have a crap system? My system runs at 31-35 degrees. If your system has issues and the majority don't then it's you, not the game Why do fanboys like you exist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbermax Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Especially those who have no idea what's the whole thread all about (after quite a few replies that makes more sense). And you cry because your card hit 80c? WAAAAAAAAAA! Idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Bee Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Especially those who have no idea what's the whole thread all about (after quite a few replies that makes more sense). For what it's worth, I really hope you get your cooling (and other system related, since there might be more...) issues solved and back to gaming ASAP.

Chaffery Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 As an engineer, are you really saying that hardware cooling should not be able to cool your system under full load? ... I pity you and your clients Don't tell that to me, tell it to video card makers, who are expecting that peoples wouldn't run their products under extreme load. But if you want talk about my clients, every new brings yet another friend, getting bit overloaded my self. Seems like peoples like quality.

If your system has issues and the majority don't then it's you, not the game ^ This I would like to blame the OP for my crappy sports team while I am at it. I have had zero client or CTD issues. My system is not an uber gaming rig either. Now I work on servers for a living and my gaming system is as clean as whistle with antivirus software fine tuned for gaming and not filled with any other crap like torrents or useless background processes. Most of what I have been seeing is people not having a decent system to run SW:TOR. Or having tons of crap programs running in the background while they attempt to fire up SW:TOR. Also found many suffering after patching due to messing around with files in the SW:TOR game directory. And they warned everyone about doing that awhile back and that it may screw up patching and/or the game files.

warrenTU Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Why do fanboys like you exist? I don't know what cries fanboy to you in this post other then the word Bioware. Its simple common sense. I know that can tend to be not so common these days. I have a system that puts out its share of heat, but I was able to think to myself I might need some good airflow to support all this. Then I thought to myself, I might need to clean my filters and my hardware once in awhile, and presto, I have a cool system that works all the time. See how that works now?

Wait, someone is shocked to find a SW:TOR fanboi...on the SW:TOR forums? I will say it again, that's like being shocked to find animals at the zoo.

Glad to hear that since in the school I got my degree from I would have been laughed out of the class for insisting that consumer software overheats your components while cooling is sufficiently handled. Glad we got that strait On the off chance you were not kidding, I pity you and your increasing number of customers Edited January 25, 2012 by C-Bee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have nothing to discuss any more. If many games are working fine and EaWare causing massive heat problems. Guess who's fault it is? Just for reference, run video burn in test and compare with TOR, you might find similarities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mashy Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I'm not going to complain about bugs and all other stuff, I am a very patient player, I know the game will get better and better, it's just how it works. But the fact that this is the only game heating up my graphics card to 80 degrees © made me worried for some time already. And today I have reached the end of the line - after playing the game for 3-4 minutes my pc goes black screen (screen off to be precise), system is down yet something is still running, not sure what exactly. The only thing I can do is restart my pc, then it turns off and on again normally. After years of waiting, since the day you announced the swtor, I could forgive you any and all bugs, but destroying my PC? Thanks, was nice month of playing with you. Have a look at modifying your airflow through your case. Ever considered watercooling? Is your system full of dust and needs a cleanout? Just a couple of ideas to try before you write it off.

Obviously not since I am left speechless and that doesnt happen much... It's beyond me how someone with your knowledge set could be actually working with computer hardware, let alone have paying customers, but thats hardly the topic of this thread.

Putok Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) 80C? I think something is wrong with your GPU if it ran into issues at only 80C. Bad overclock? Also, why is it even getting that hot at full load? At 100% load, my card (Vapor-X 5870, slightly OCed beyond the factory OC) generally doesn't get above the mid 50s. I think your cooling may be inadequate. What case are you using? What kind of fans? How many? How are they set up? If your system can't keep your card cool enough at 100% load, it's really not bioware's fault. It's also not their fault that your card died at such relatively low temperatures, something else was probably going on. That said, the game is terribly optimized, and really runs like crap and chews up a ridiculous amount of GPU power given how awful it looks. EDIT: I actually really like the art style of the game. These are just not high end graphics by 2012 standards... or 2008 standards for that matter. Edited January 25, 2012 by Putok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't tried liquid hydrogen (nitrogen) yet tho. Way too many condensation problems.
