I opened EVE this morning to change my skills, then logged off and left home while my laptop still had the client running with the log in page.
I come back a few hours later to find my laptop BURNING HOT all over simply because I left the EVE client log in page open.
Note: I did not leave open any other APP besides EVE client and my browser (had 3 blank tabs open) when I left.
Why does EVE burn my laptop on the freaking LOG IN PAGE? It usually gets hot only when I run 2 clients and I actually play/do stuff.
There is something REALLY bad with this client, I don't remember having this issue pre-Incarna.
Anyway, on another note I usubbed all my accounts due to the constant FAIL since Incarna. This issue is just another reason. I think I am not the only one to have this problem. CCP said Incarna was a technical success. I beg to differ,it is a disaster.
Hope you guys fix this. EVE might still be worth while if you fix all this crap called Incarna. |

did you leave your laptop on the bed or without a fan under neath? some people do that and are surprised when they come back and find their laptops dont turn back on. |

I leave my laptop open many hours and the only time it gets remotely hot is when I play games, NOT when I have a client open on log in page... seriously. It is not my laptop to blame, I played EVE pre-Incarna and had no such issues on the same laptop... go figure. |

@ Tenchi Sal
Nope it was on a desk, fan had enough space to suck in air. I never leave it on cloth or other similar stuff.
My question is that the client was clearly using my graphix card, and A LOT, fan at maximum, just for a damn log in page... something is definitely WRONG. |

The login screen has fancyness that's using your vid card, this fancyness will mean your vidcard is doing work and generating heat for hours... combined with the usual crappy laptop fans and dust... warmth! Check for dust, if there is none your laptop may be a harbinger of the apocalypse.

You are right, my graphix card was running at max due to the log in page for some reason. But HOW/WHY does EVE client log in page use so much resources? Is there a option to turn this thing off, it might burn my laptop... |

While OPs post is a bit silly it's true the new client is awful especially on laptops, I litterally can't open it for more than 2 minutes as my laptop gets so hot. This everything low and CQ off
I used to run a 24" monitor off the very same laptop running eve at high res, even in space and the laptop never overheated. Now I can't even look at a .jpg of a door without it melting.
Real Issue is Real, OP is still an idiot. |

I'm afraid you are deeply mistaken or just a fan boy?
Turning off my laptop will not solve the obvious problem we have here. The EVE client is very poorly optimized since Incarna. It literally burns laptops. I could have made eggs on it, that is how hot it was.
I can understand a hot laptop when I play EVE, but on a log in page? Seriously? |

Good tip, thx.
However I think we should not change our gameplay experience to compensate for bad development, instead we should raise awareness and get such problems fixed. |

Don't listen to the "you broke your own stuff" crowd..apparently you didn't see the forums at Incarna release where dozens of laptops fried. I run mine sitting up on a metal grate to insure air circulation and it burnt up. An M-Tech gaming laptop , i had to buy a new 9800m graphics card - which you can't buy in USA. (Ebay rescued me for $300)
If you have no choice but to run eve on a laptop..take it apart and clean the dust out of graphics card fins. Normal cleaning will not prevent dust bunnies in notebooks.
I personally uninstalled eve from notebook. |

You got me worried. I think I'll clean my cooler just in case. I don't play eve that much lately, but better safe than sorry. ATM I don't have the comfort of a desktop so my laptop is all I got. |

I think maybe your computer was looking at some hot websites. and changed them to blank tabs when you got back. You wouldn't be suggesting that Eve Online was looking at **** and got the computer all hot while you were away?!?! The 3 blank tabs is very suspicious. But blaming poor Eve Online for that. It's unfair. Even if it was to blame... It has urges!!! Okay!?! It's only hum... ummm Never mind. |

I had similar happen to me. I was playing Eve so hard that I missed my new job appointment. I ran out of money, lost my house and my car and my wife left me. Damn you CCP!!!
On the upside, I now play Eve on a laptop on my new home, a parkbench, and the 5 degree wind keeps my laptop cool no probs.
But yeah, CCP is also to blame for us having to listen to this whining, nonsensical load of codswallop. Yeah, I know, I don't have to read, I don't have to play. I should just turn my 'puter off and get a life.
Hey. Now THERE'S an idea.

because its rendering a a viewport with a full ship with animations and particle effects just like (gasp) the game does when you play it.
perhaps your video card kinda sucks with the particle effects rendering non-stop for hours on end, just like if you were carebearin it up shooting at rocks like you obviously do on a regular basis
The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

Reminds me of...
When leaving notebooks idle, (idle login-screen counts as idle too) windows-stuff kicks in, (for example: defragmentation) and the fan goes way up.
so, that pretty much sums up to A LOT OF HEAT !
had this with every notebook for years now, so yours is no exception.
And this has nothing to do with the CQ, so why bother even bringing it in ? O_o

I disagree... if I leave my laptop open all night for example (No EVE client open) there is no heat in the morning. Plus I got no defragmentation going on. I know my pc man, I know if there are any backgorund stuff going on. The only reasonable explanation is the EVE client going crazy on my graphix card.

Another poster that wasn't around when the Classic client was axed for good...
However, I do admit, this is slightly different than what happened then, given that CCP has already admitted that the Incarna client runs poorly and could use some performance tweaks, i.e. anyone with half a fart in their head would be better to not run the game client on systems that they know cannot handle the current iteration of the client, or ya know... be prepared to smoke their systems, which will be their fault.
It's like this:

Is a troll someone that tells you that you've got a problem with your laptop? Is a troll someone that tells you that "heavy PC gaming" shouldn't be done on a portable machine with a 1 1/2" fan? Is a troll someone that tells you that you should never leave a laptop on all day anyway, Eve or otherwise?

Again, the obvious solution is to not run your client on a system you know cannot handle it currently.
It sucks, and I do imagine it is pretty disappointing, but it wouldn't be the first time a game developer overshoots the performance requirements for their client in such a way that causes clients undo issues and complications.
I had to stop using my own laptop when they axed the Classic client because all I could really do with the Premium client was sit in station with the settings at their absolute lowest, which was kind of useless except for chatting and trading of course.
This situation is a work in progress, i.e. until CCP actually releases any content patches aimed at reducing performance problems for low end user rigs like laptops, etc. you have two options, continue to play the client on your laptop and hope it survives, or put it down and stick to a desktop until CCP makes good on their promise to look into the problem. ...clearly the Ishukone Watch Scorpion is the fifth horseman of the Apocalypse, i.e. the Brown Rider, otherwise known as Poopie. |

both people are right in this thread.
Laptops shouldn't be left on all day using gpu heavy programs, they do get hot hurr durr. @op try idling in another game all day and see if your laptop doesnt get hot. The opening screen does have a rather fancy animation.
but
everyone knows that there are problems with Incarna's performance, even CCP have admitted it. Cards working way too hard for the environment needed. |

A quite useless animation that takes way too much GPU for its purpose. I will not leave my laptop open with EVE log-in page from now on, but I would honestly appreciate an option to disable such animations to the a log-in page. I do not need it, the cost is simply to high for the gains, just like Incarna... |

Really...... if you had any idea how computers process 3D and the limitations of a computer to process only the amount it is capable of you, would be blaming the manufacture of the laptop not the company that makes a game.
The problem is the laptop can only process so much to the limitations of its hardware the heat you feel is actually the manufacturer putting something with no under clock in it to stop burning a hole in your desk.

A quite useless animation that takes way too much GPU for its purpose. I will not leave my laptop open with EVE log-in page from now on, but I would honestly appreciate an option to disable such animations to the a log-in page. I do not need it, the cost is simply to high for the gains, just like Incarna...
the real question is why would you want to idle on login page? when you come back to the computer after a while dont you get the "socket closed" error first time logging in? wouldn't it be quicker to load it from scratch?
also get a notebook cooler, they are heaps better than they used to be. I did a heap of research and ended up getting a coolermaster single 230mm fan version. for me it dropped gpu temps by about 15 degrees over just wedging the back of the laptop up. also keeps the the surface of the lappy alot cooler (mine gets warm around the touchpad after a couple hours)

The problem is the laptop can only process so much to the limitations of its hardware the heat you feel is actually the manufacturer putting something with no under clock in it to stop burning a hole in your desk.
Then why do other games, more demanding than an EVE log-in screen run just fine? Why do I have this issue JUST with EVE Online? Is my laptop to be blamed? And when I say other games I mean Deus Ex 3 and other current games on the market. |

You are complaining about a LOG-IN screen. If your laptop cannot run a single page animation and it's a "HEAVY GAMING" laptop (an oxymoron nonetheless) then the issue is NOT CCP.
Which part aren't you getting?
But I am a solutions person so I am going to suggest you take the lappy out to the garage and crank up the compressor. If that's not possible, a can of compressed air available from most good electronics shops should do the trick.
Failing that. Buy a HEAVY GAMING PC and use the laptop for forum posting. It's pretty darn good at doing that.

Meh, there is no option to disable that useless animation. Thanks for your time and input, but this wont fix the heating problem. My laptop runs EVE just fine, it heats up though. My surprise was to see that the log-in page made my laptop this hot. Honestly I feel that is just a useless "feature" just like Incarna.

The log-in page uses very roughly the same amount of hardware resources as being logged in and in space in a safespot. If you have trouble with the log in screen, you should have the same problems with the "in space" part too. Oh, and the "in space" part actually runs smoother in Incarna than before it. It's the CQ part that's uber-stressful to hardware. You might want to consider ramping down your graphics options OR cleaning your laptop's insides OR getting supplemental cooling. http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Contributor_name:Akita_T#Contributions_link_collection |

What do you think is happening on the login screen? THE GAME IS RUNNING! It's using the in game engine to render a scene, you know, like a game! Just cos your not logged into the server does not mean your not going to be pushing your GPU at the login screen. If you wanna leave your crap top running while you go out for hours on end, that's your fecking problem. My mother was a thukker, my father was an elderberry! - @flynnfetladral on Twitter! |

SC2 had a similar problem where graphics cards would overheat on the menu screen (but not in-game).
Why? because the menu screen was not GPU heavy but had no framerate lock set. So the GPU would render the "easy" menu screen at crazy framerates and overheat in the process of doing so.
In the words of Blizzard
Quote:Screens that are light on detail may make your system overheat if cooling is overall insufficient. This is because the game has nothing to do so it is primarily just working on drawing the screen very quickly.
If your rig can handle FiS just fine but overheats on the login screen I would expect the problem to be of a similar nature.
Of course this doesn't change the fact that a properly designed system is unable to overheat.
If your hardware cannot run at full capacity over extended periods of time your laptop/computer manufacturer did outfit it with an insufficient cooling solution (which is pretty much the norm with budget computers as everybody looks at the CPU & GPU model when making a buying decision and nobody cares about TDP; airflow, cooling, ... easy to save some dollars and most customers will use their hardware at max only for short bursts of time if at all).
Also modern hardware should shut itself down before taking any damage from heat. (that is, unless the heat sensors don't cover the chip regions that are hottest - which can happen in rare cases ) |

The log in screen can be somewhat heavy on resources as the purpose is to display the UI quickly to let you get in as fast as possible, if your username is stored it takes about 2 seconds to log in. To allow people to log in on all kinds of computers it also has to consume very little VRAM. And of course within these constraints it has to look good too, it is a computer game after all.
So if you leave the log in screen on your computer will have done some heavy lifting and it's no surprise that it would run hot, especially if it's a laptop. Wrangler Community Team Manager - Community Arch Wizard

The login screen is needlessly over animated and rendered. Beyond the "wow" factor for new players and showing it off to your friends the login screen quickly loses its intended impact. Would be nice to have a checkbox so we could decide to have "The Door" as our login screen. If "The Door" is good enough for 30K customers to look at everyday multiple times a day, then it's perfectly suitable for the login screen.
Your point is moot!
However, in general, leaving a laptop on all day without adequate secondary cooling is fairly dumb to begin with. We want breast augmentations and sluttier clothing in the NeX! |

While I understand your point, I fail to see the purpose of such a demanding log-in screen for the GPU when users spend "2 seconds" looking at it. It is beyond me why CCP implements such useless "features", wasting precious time that can be used for FIS.

I agree it is an honest issue, and similar to what happened when they axed the Classic Client years ago.
People were shaking their fists at CCP saying they couldn't play the game anymore now that they were forced to use the Premium Client and how dare CCP do this to loyal customers!
This situation is of course, slightly different in the fact that, CCP has already admitted there are performance issues, and they are looking into it.
What more did you expect? A fruit basket?
Wait your turn in line for them to fix an outstanding issue for subscribers in your position or do not play the game. Your alternatives are to come here and throw a fit...

If you are going to game from a laptop you really should use this. You can leave EVE running all day long with this particular model and your laptop will be no hotter than it would be from turning it on and letting it idle for 5 minutes. I've used this cooler for a few years now, and it's probably the best one on the market. |

And seeing as hot air rises, all your doing is preventing cool air from actually entering the laptop from the bottom? unless the fan is strong enough to draw air through the keyboard, im not really sure what airflow your getting?
But if it works for you i guess? |

Anyway, I hope CCP considers this when they develop future expansions. This is an issue of poor optimisation not bad hardware. Thanks for all the replies. |

650 watt power supply. quad processor 2 graphics cards 2 monitors 2048 x 1152 24" screens 2 hard drives 4 case fans 120 mm
Has no issues running multiple accounts at 60 FPS (interval set to one)
UPS says it is pulling 320 watts.
Building your own computer is well worth the time and effort. Cost less and you have no issues, and the only one you can blame if there is a issue, is yourself.

CCP has no concept of throttling... Seriously, I've long _LONG_ wanted some way to manually set max FPS outside of the 4 intervals.
It's not a hard feature to implement and it would make life with EVE+laptop much more comfortable and battery-friendly. E.g. 5 to 10 FPS is more than enough for someone who's just trading in station or AP'ing through high-sec.
Same goes for the login screen... You don't need 60 fps there. 84,000 AUR ($420) spent on NeX store for Troll and Profit. |

isboxer/innerspace is a multiboxing application that allows you to throttle your FPS. Even lets you set different clients to a different FPS depending on which one is "active". In case you multibox multiple clients. Can also dedicate processor cores to individual clients. Worth looking at. |

So the salesman told you the laptop is good for gaming, you believed him, and now you are throwing toys out of the pram? |

Notebooks shouldnt burn whatever you are doing with, its just a failed construction. If you have a good notebook it should switch off if there is too much heat before it breaks because of overheating. Buy better notebooks or blame the manufacturer for this. |
