at the main menu it’s doing it, it’s not finished downloading but the tutorial ran perfectly smooth at 1680x1050 with every single setting at its highest, I finished it in one go no crashing or hanging
but, I only noticed it afterwards and have been too scared to even go past the main menu again lol, it’s shooting out a LOT of heat FAST
everything else is completely fine I leave monster hunter world and second life running for days I really think there might be a bug in gears 5 because if it was my gpu all my time in second life would have killed it
I’m guessing it’s gears because again it does it at the main menu and before I made this thread until now I’ve been logged in second life with its graphics maxed and it’s the most poorly piece of software ever coded and I’ve been running it basically 24/7 for seven years now
Might seem odd to read this, but I had my first overheating issue with my GoW S from this game too. Obviously this statement goes nowhere in addressing your problem, but I guess it’s not something that’s isolated specially within the PC world.
I don’t know, could just be coincidence, but it happened. Nothing is beyond conspiracy.
Not playing on PC, but I’m playing on an xbox one X scorpio edition and Gears 5 is the only game to make it noticeably loud and put off heat. I dunno just adding my experience, I have a decent PC that’s mainly used for audio production I was going to try gears on instead of my xbox but wont now lol.
