I knew there had to be an issue my cpu doesn't hit 60c unless I'm playing a newish game thats extremely cpu intensive and even then it goes back down to 55c quick (small AC Unit hooked up to the intake fans.)

You are running dangerously close to the max temp for the Pheonom which is 62C. You can tone your CPU down slightly by lowering the voltages in the BIO's. Lower the RAM voltages as well. Doing that will slow your system down (as you're losing clock speed) but does help elevate some of the heating issues temporarily.
The above is not a good solution for long term. We shouldn't have to gimp our systems to play a game like this. I know of far heavier resource hog games than Eve Incarna is supposed to be.
Also - stock cooler = bad.
I am using an air-cooled system with a Noctua cooler and even my temps are rising significantly. And the Noctua air cool gives damn near the same performance as a liquid cool.
I would use an aftermarket cooler if my mobo could accomodate it the heatsink base around the socket is unremovable which gimps my ability to get a different cooler so I'm stuck with what I have.

Snap in pins? On the back of the motherboard, you can pinch them and pop them out. Then slip a new heat sink base/socket on.
the screws were stripped making it impossible to remove

One solution I've come across was lowering the ambient temp by about 10 degrees Fahrenheit, reducing anti aliasing to low, set cpu fan speed at 50% instead of 26% when running games. Raising the GPU Fan Speed to 50% instead of 30%. Because of that eve runs at 49c with two clients everything else max except anti allaising while in space. In station with both I'm sitting at 52c.

Theres definately an issue with the CQ.
Im running:
watercooled i7 920 at 4ghz
EVGA GTX 460 SC EE (standard clocks)
Running 1 console. The processor shows a slight bump in heat but nothing out of the ordinary. The GPU however, my god, it gets to 90+ in a matter of minutes and I've had two thermal shut downs!
It may be an inconsistent problem in that not all members are experiencing it but one constant between the members that are experiencing it is the CQ aspect.
Perhaps there should be a disable option until a permanent fix can be made?
Try lowering the Interior effects and the anti Allasising, and see see if you can get the evga precision tool and raise the fan speed of the GPU it might help, stock settings for my 460 are 40% which it can get hot quick at that but at 50% its fine
In this life only three things are certain. Taxes, Death, and Data Loss. Guess which has occurred.
Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams. |
