Can we participate even if we're not planning on attending since we're going to lose anyway?

wow this guy is Korea! I was born in you, you know

Turns out the real problem was that I had my gpu settings on "Fixed" instead of "Dynamic" in that F10 system configurations thing you go in when you first start your computer. It now runs TF2 at sub-60 degrees, and I feel incredibly dumb.

Thanks for all the help though. I'm sure it makes incremental differences, even if it's not as large as the one I just described.

I just sprayed some pathetic blasts of air through the side vents. Hope it helps.

I mean it's not like my computer's melting. I just figure it's better to be lower than not.

I played around with my power options before, but if you have any particular options of note that you think will help with overheating I'd be happy to try them.

Unfortunately mine's on HP recommended with my own customizations. I notice there's a Gaming Mode; is there any merit to that?

Thanks babes

Anyone know where you go to get a repaste that doesn't involve Best Buy employees?

I don't trust myself to open up my laptop and fix things so I should probably take it to someone for some maintenance for the fan dust and pasting issues.

I do have a shitty cooling pad and elevate my laptop.

How do you set an fps max?

So my laptop HP Pavilion dv6 with i7-23xx and Radeon 6770m has a tendency to overheat when worked too hard e.g. playing TF2. It usually hovers a bit over 80°C and very rarely goes up to 93-94°C.

Naturally, if you have any ingenious ways of solving my problem for me, I welcome it.

I get around 200 fps while playing 6s. Not so much in pubs, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. I was thinking that if I limited the amount of effort my computer was allowed to put into playing TF2, I could potentially reduce the overheating problem at the cost of a little bit of frame rate. Lots of people get along fine with something like 120 fps.

Problem is, I don't know how to go about doing this, nor whether it will help me at any rate. For this, I appeal to you. Please help?

Thanks

Ever planning to make the big comeback?

How is anyone to know whether they'd play your games if they don't know what games you have?

I probably have 3000 hours of FM experience as well. Threw away a semester's grade and a girlfriend for it, but I like to think I've come out a better man through it all.

I just got the sweetest fucking card I've ever laid eyes on
