So.. how do we know which of them are talking crap and which know what they're talking about? You didn't give us too many clues on that. Im just another random guy in the "swarm". You have no reason to listen to my opinion on who is right. Hell, i even have a low post count to boot. You should definitely not listen to me. All replies to this post have to be approved by mgj beforehand - please include a PM from him saying "comment approved" before replying. That is really not what i am after. But when the subject of the discussion is potential risks to your hardware, be cautious about who you trust. People dont seem to realize they are on a gaming forum, im just trying to warn them and teach them to be critical about what they read. Noone wants their expensive hardware to die because of something silly like that. | ||

EDIT: Wow I'm dumb. The second variables doesn't have any of the stuff the \Starcraft II\variables.txt has. No need to change that. | ||

However, having the game make the gfx card work to its max to give a blistering fps on a menu screen is silly. I don't need ultra high fps for menus, having them capped at 60fps seems entirely reasonable, let the card take a break on something inconsequential and go full load when it matters, ingame. | ||

Any hardware can die because of overheating since hardware can't decide for itself that it's getting pretty hot. Oh my god, you are so wrong. | ||

Im not really trying to take a moral highground, im just as bad as the rest, i even say so in the post you quoted. Hell, i might even be a bit worse since i added that insulting punchline. I somehow doubt the thread needs another "I think its like this" post. If you read the thread, i have asked to people who i consider to be unclear (read: wrong) for a clarification. Hopefully people are smart enough to decide for themself after an explaination. I consider that contributing, you do not. Fair enough. Suit yourself people. Go ahead and recommend overclocking of passively cooled cards and similar advice which have been posted on this site in the past. Its not my hardware. | ||
