Hey,

I’d like to warn about some CPU issues I’ve been in.

Depending on the frame rate set in the graphic options, there can be problems with your CPU overheating insanely.

In my case, with a pretty decent setup (see below), when the frame rate is set on “Limited to 30”, the game works just fine (everything else is on the highest setup).

But as soon as i set the frame rate on “Limited to 60” or “Unlimited”, my CPU starts overheating (75°C ++++ / I’ve never let the game push the temperature further but I’m pretty sure it would top around 90°C or even more).

My PC configuration is:
- Windows 7 Pro 64bit
- Intel i5 2550k 3.4GHz
- Gainward GeForce GTX 570 “Golden Sample” Goes Like Hell 1280MB
- Crucial Ballistix Tactical 2×4Go 1866MHz/CAS9
(I have updated all my drivers trying to fix this issue up)

For now, the game is running pretty fine with a 30 FPS rate. But It’s kind of weird that I can’t set up any other frame rate with this configuration without risking burning my CPU.

Hope you can fix this. Thanks.
