| 00:45.58 | blast007 | likely doesn't thermal throttle until more like 90 to 100C |
| 00:47.34 | macsforme | oh, he was gone |
| 00:47.42 | macsforme | Delusional: 82 C is not that hot for a CPU or GPU while gaming |
| 00:48.32 | blast007 | is this an iMac or is it a laptop? |
| 00:49.13 | Delusional | Iâm used to the fan almost never coming on. imac 27â late 2013. I think it found out i was looking at a new one. |
| 00:49.58 | blast007 | heh |
| 00:50.23 | Delusional | the fan never ran during BZ before, usually 145F |
| 00:51.48 | macsforme | did your framerate change? |
| 00:52.03 | Delusional | I get that temp from the âPlatform Contoller Hubâ which is almost always the hottest temp of the 30+ sensors this app checks. |
| 00:53.41 | Delusional | didnt really look at the framerate. checking it nowâ¦175⦠|
| 00:53.55 | Delusional | but i have fpsLimit set in config.config |
| 00:54.01 | Delusional | set to 60 |
| 00:54.39 | macsforme | /localset saveEnergy 1? |
| 00:56.31 | Delusional | ok, that turns fps down to 50.. lets let it heat up for a few |
| 00:57.06 | blast007 | is 1 for FPS limit and 2 for vsync? why not use vsync if you're setting the limit to 60 anyway? |
| 00:57.11 | blast007 | then you'd get rid of tearing |
| 00:57.34 | macsforme | good point |
| 00:59.14 | blast007 | (I guess the main reason would be if you're dipping below 60FPS, but seeing it was doing 175, that's probably not an issue for most maps) |
| 01:02.14 | Delusional | saveEnergy is keeping it under 160.. 155 |
| 01:04.00 | blast007 | do you have the energy saver option set to Vertical Sync? |
| 01:08.05 | Delusional | fpsLimit 60 in my config.cfg definitely appears to be non-working⦠energy saver says⦠FPS limit |
| 01:08.34 | blast007 | use vertical sync |
| 01:09.49 | Delusional | linear mipmap linear⦠anisotropis, some random number, 3â¦.. basicly a random number on anti-aliasing too |
| 01:10.15 | Delusional | ok iâll try that setting |
| 01:10.31 | blast007 | that will sync the redraw to your display's refresh, which is likely 60Hz, so you'll end up with a limit of 60FPS anyway, except with the added benefit that you won't have tears in the display from a frame being swapped out halfway through drawing a new image to the screen |
| 01:11.43 | Delusional | yeah, FPS seems locked at 59 now |
| 01:15.17 | Delusional | and temp holding at 155.. this machines fan goes into turbo around 165 |
| 01:15.17 | Delusional | itâs running but you cant hear it at 155 |
| 01:15.26 | Delusional | thankyou gentlemen |
| 01:24.08 | Delusional | soâ¦. set energy saver to vertical sync also applies an FPS limit? |
| 01:28.38 | blast007 | https://www.maketecheasier.com/what-is-vsync/ |
| 01:39.38 | blast007 | to be clear, it's *not* using the fpsLimit you have set |
| 01:39.57 | blast007 | it's matching the frame drawing to what your screen will refresh at, which is 60Hz |
| 01:40.08 | Delusional | ok, why wasnt the FPSLimit in my config.cfg working? |
| 01:40.53 | blast007 | did you have energy saver set to 'off' before? |
| 01:41.28 | Delusional | yes |
| 01:41.30 | Delusional | aah |
| 01:41.37 | blast007 | :) |
| 01:41.56 | Delusional | and lastly, does my mac know that I was looking at new onesâ¦. well it does NOW |
