Heat a problem when gaming?

So, I was trying out Left 4 Dead 2 last night in Win7 (Bootcamp). For some reason I felt bad to put my new iMac through such stress and to hear the fans start kicking in. I'm hoping It doesn't hurt it by getting too hot. Is there a good temperature sensor for Win7 that I can download to keep track of it? This computer does stay amazingly cool (right around 32 Celsius) when doing some web surfing in OSX.
Am I just being too paranoid about this? I did notice that the fan noise did decrease after playing for about half an hour. It seems like it did a good job of cooling it, but I'm afraid to push it too far after hearing about all the screen flickering problems right now on these discussion boards. Thankfully, mine hasn't done that yet and I've had this thing for almost a week now. The game recommended a 1080 screen resolution, but I even knocked it down to 720 just to be on the safer side.
Has anyone else done any gaming on the new 27" iMacs? What's a good temperature sensor I could use in Win7?
Thanks!

I would say, fans kicking in is a good thing! They're doing what they are built for: keeping your system cool. I'd be more worried if I was playing a game and my fans wouldn't kick in
As long as your system doesn't overheat (it'll shut down if it does) the fans will do their job keeping the temperatures well within acceptable range. I don't really know much about the maximum safe temperature, but I trust the operating system and their drivers to keep the system in a safe situation.
You could try one of the programs mentioned above and see how fast the fans are spinning. If the temperature is kept stable without having the fans going on fullspeed, I'd say your system is capable of taking care of things itself As a precaution you could make the fans spin faster to keep it cooler, but I trust my computer to keep itself safe so usually I just leave it as it is.

  • Ouch! MSI GE60 crazy problem when gaming

    Hi all-
    I have GE60 and when I play a game (EQII) more than about 20 minutes- comp goes freaking crazy and does whatever it wants....
    Ingame= avatar starts running around, spins in circles, chat window starts zip-typing whatever it wants ,(nnnnnnnnnnnnnxxxxx) etc.
    It seems to be escalating- when out of game after ingame problem occurs, desktop starts shaking all over, any program I am running jumps around and starts flashing menu bars on and off.
    Is this an overheating problem? It seems the fan isn't turning on. How do I or can I repair this problem?

    And install MSI Afterburner to check realtime temperature ingame on-screen.

  • Having serious latency problems when gaming out of...

    Hi there,
    I run ADSL, and being in a semi-rural area its not fantastic - 4MB if I'm lucky, but generally its been quite stable and no major problems.
    Over the last week or two I've noticed that my Home and World lag on WoW seems to jump dramatically, to the point of being unplayable.
    I've done all the usual - tried wired, changed filters, reset router umpteen times and still seem to be sporadically afflicted by it.
    I don't know if its much help or not, but here's a pathping, and a traceroute I did earlier.

  • System crash when gaming (Update: Temperature Problem?)

    Hello there
    I have a problem: when starting games (Minecraft, Relics of Annorath, Portal, World of Goo tested) my Laptop crashes. The screen gets black and the only possibility to turn it back on is to remove the battery, wait 10 seconds and then reboot. I don't see any error messages, not in the journal and not in the Xorg.0.log. I have a HP 8470w with a Intel i7-3610QM Quad Core and a AMD FirePro M2000 grapics card. I am running kernel 3.10.10-ARCH with fglrx. Is anyone aware of this problem or can help me even just pointing out where to look for the problem? If you need more info, please tell me.

    Could these 127°C be the problem? It's getting pretty hot while gaming but 127°C is almost impossible...

    temp6, temp7, temp8 are strange.... but because it's impossible reach these temps (+127 and +0) I think those sensors are not used or bad report data
    if you think it's a overheating problem, you must log temps (sensord+rrdtool)
    so you'll get the latest temps before the PC crashes

  • Audio problem when running Win XP Pro SP3

    I have a problem when running Windows XP SP3 on my MacBook. Every minute or so, and this happens consistently, the music would be played in a slow-motion mode, and after a few seconds return to normal speed. I have exchanged for another MacBook, and I am having the exact same problem. I have all the drivers installed properly, and have tried both iTunes and WMP. This even happens when I am gaming or watching YouTube.
    The problem does not exist when I'm running Mac OS X.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    After spending a few hours googling around I finally found the solution to the problem. At first I thought it was something wrong with my Windows XP Pro, but apparently people running Vista were having the same problem.
    I installed Vista myself and indeed was having the same problem.
    The problem apparently is a clash between the sound card and the WiFi card on the MacBook. If you turn off your WiFi, you would not get the occasional adio/video slowdown.
    The solution was actually quite simple, force-install the 5.x Broadcom 802.11n driver, and voila, problem taken care of.

  • Satellite Pro A120 audio problem when played through amplifier

    I've been experiencing some problems when attempting to playback music through an amplifier, using a lead from the headphone socket on my laptop connected to the amp's auxillary input: when the laptop is connected, the amp produces static, and a high-pitched hum. Weirdly, this only happens when the laptop is connected to the mains. I don't think it's a fault with my amp, as the laptop, when connected to the mains, also causes interference with the LCD screen I use with it. Is there anyway to resolve this problem? Could it be a fault with the laptop itself, or the power cable?

    Hi there,
    The possible reasons for that issue can be:
    - your machine and the amp has differrent ground potentials and/or voltage is inductioned in a mass loop
    - over the screening of the audiocable is flowing a compensation voltage betwenn the amp and the notebook
    - a low DC-voltage were generated on the resistance of the screening which causes the buzzing
    The point is that you have to ground or separate the currents of the amp and the notebook.
    Its logical: your power outlet is causing a interference so if you connnect both to to it, you have the interference.
    Check if some machines are connected to your power outlet which are needing heavily current (e.g. fan heater or what i know what) and disconnect them to see if the interference is going away.
    If not, I suggest you to try that which was suggested in your last post.

  • FX 5700 TD-128, screen goes into standby when gaming

    Hey all, recently upgraded to this card and have been having a major issue with it.  While palying games, the monitor will go to standby and to get anything back on the screen I have to reboot.  This can be either 5 minutes or 2 hours into the game.  Not just one specific game either.
    Here are my specs:
    -Windows XP Professional
    -Epox 8RDA3I, Nvidia chipset
    -XP2800+
    -512MB Crucial PC3200
    -40GB Hitachi 7200
    -450W MGE power supply
    The cpu stays steady at 50C and the case never gets above 40C when gaming.  Playing Unreal Tournament 2004, I even reduced the res to 600x800 and set the refresh at 60hz.  Using the latest geforce drivers from nvidia.  I suspect the card itself may be overheating even though the fan seems to be working.
    I have a day left before I can get a refund from Newegg.  Wondering if I should exchange it or go for a different model.  Thanks for the help

    If you are using the MSI drivers try using the latest  nVidia Drivers
    You may even have to revert back a few revisions such as the 5X.XX, as the latest drivers are aimed toward the latest VGA cards on the market and sometimes that causes problems for previous gen cards.
    If the games you are playing do not require the absolute latest drivers then it is safe to go back and find the best drivers for your setup and configuration.
    In that case you can access all the revisions here http://ftp://download.nvidia.com/Windows/
    Overclocking without properly testing for stability can cause problems especially if the AGP bus is being overclocked.

  • Video card problems when eax is enab

    Ok i got the Soundblaster li've! external, boy it sounds sweet with my Creative Labs 5. inspire P5800 speakers. But... i have a problem when playing call of duty with eax enabled, the games graphics lag. So i have a feeling that i need a new card (current is an ATI 9000 series card). I would like to know if there is a good agp x4 graphics card that will keep up with my gaming and not break my bank. im under a somewhat tight budget. Also could more memory help i have 52 and have been thinking about adding more for a long time but this just increases my desire. One other thing is are the creative labs graphics cards any good.

    Hi, this morning when I started using my Mac the letters on the screen were unsually fuzzy, very slightly but enough to be noticeable. I plugged in another display to check if this was the problem. However, again, the letters were a little fuzzy. So I thought of calling Apple. But then, I thought I'd try Apple discussions. And in a matter of seconds, I found Malcom Rayfield's post:
    "Press Command-Option-8 once or twice. Zoom was turned on, maybe because you pressed control while using the scroll-wheel. Zoom is also controlled in the "Seeing" pane of "Universal Access" system preference."
    And it solved my problem! I use Final Cut Pro and there is a command that I often use which is Command + 8. By accident I must have pressed Command + Option + 8 last night and didn't notice it until this morning.
    So I just want thank Malcolm for your help and your knowledge of Macs which helped solve my problem.

  • MSI 970A-G46 with a AMD FX8350 shutting down when gaming of Indexing win 7

    Hallo
    I set up a new pc with these components
    MSI  970A-G46
    AMD FX8350
    MSI Radeon HD7750 OC
    Corsair PC12800
    WD 1TB
    PSU 600W
    All stock
    Bios update: done
    Driver update: done
    Temperature is bios about 55 Celcius
    Now when gaming or doing a speed index of windows 7 the pc shuts of and when it shuts of the front case led is blinking.
    The CPU and MOBO gets verry hot.
    I have read that MSI claims that the 970A-G46 is not suited for the FX8350 becouse it has 4. +1 phases. 
    Please help me with this headache

    PSU: Recom Power Engine 600 Plus 600W
    See here MSI claim (Got it from a forum)
    Quote from: from an unknown user post on unknown forum
    Dear MSI,
    Thank you for your detailed response to my concerns... I can see clearly now. I only have a couple questions.
    Regarding your courtesy "step-up" option: If I choose to RMA my board and pay the difference for an upgrade, will I be required to send in my motherboard first, before you send me my replacement? Manufacturer RMA procedures are time-consuming, and typically span several days, or often weeks before the replacement product arrives. If I have to send in my motherboard first and wait for a replacement, I will essentially be without a desktop computer for that period of time.
    This is a serious issue for me. I use my computer on a daily-basis for important tasks. Being stuck without a computer for several days is unfair and unreasonable, given that I'm not the one at fault here. I'm being inconvenienced because of MSI's blunder with this motherboard. This is your mistake, not mine. I hope you re-consider this a little more carefully.
    I feel similarly about paying for shipping. Sending out the board on my own dime may not seem like a big problem, but the principle is the same: I'm being penalized for something that is no fault of my own.
    Let me remind you that you are propagating false advertising when you say this motherboard "supports" FX-8350 Vishera CPUs. To say that it really "supports" the FX-8350 is being generous; I'm using this CPU/motherboard combo right now, and I can see for myself that the 970A-G46 quickly falls to it's knees when the CPU reaches full load. No other properly-designed motherboard does this. Real-world tasks such as video encoding will use 100% of my processor, thus causing it to throttle. Adobe Media Encoder is not a "heavy burn-in tool"; it is, in fact, a "standard usage scenario" as you put it.
    It's the equivalent of selling a car that boasts an 8-cylinder engine, but can only use 2 cylinders driving down the freeway because it wasn't actually designed for that much power. Very dishonest.
    At this point you have openly admitted that the motherboard is flawed. I will hold you to that. Your engineers have tested it for themselves, and have observed the CPU's power going over spec, thus not working properly with this motherboard. You can blame the problem on AMD, but it doesn't change the fact that you're selling this motherboard to unknowing consumers, neglecting to warn them about the board's limitations.
    Your courtesy upgrade option is a step in the right direction. But unless you can provide me with a more agreeable form of compensation that doesn't make me pay for shipping and leave me without a PC, I plan on escalating this issue.

  • Problems when using Mic in voice progr

    I've been recently having problems when i try talking in a voice program such as vent. Say i would b playing a game such as counter-strike or some gaming program that fills the whole screen and i would be first talking perfectly fine in Vent but then all of a sudden my friends tell me that my mic is giving out this big awful static noise whenever i talk. This started to happen right after i reformated my computer. Is there a way to fix this? I have so far updated the driver. Please help.

    also if i were to reinstall the card or even reformat my comp again do i need to pull out the card and reinsert it bak onto the comp? also i was reading over the manual about how to install the card, and it says that when it asks you about the audio i'm supposed to cancel it. I was wondering if its talkin about when the computer detects the soundcard and asks me to install the files that they recommend me doin. if its yes im guessin im supposed to insert the cd and let it install the files. If not do i just cancel and just install the files by just the cd? Whenever i reformat my comp i always leave the card in and just run the cd. Am i doin that wrong?

  • I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop and and HP Win 7 laptop (my wifes) print to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I have the latest driver installed. No problem when I had a Canon...

    I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop is running the network, and my wife's HP Win 7 laptop prints to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I do have the latest driver installed. I didn't have a problem when I had a Canon Pixma on the network, but when I replaced it with the Epson nothing seems to work. I go to add a printer to the queue and only the FAX function of the printer shows up - not the WS-4530 print function. Does anyone out there have any suggestions?  Please??? :-)

    Hi Kelly,
    As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
    I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
    OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
    Start with the section titled Check the network.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Sincerely,
    Brett L 

  • How do I stop Firefox from creating untitled web pages when I try to send email from a web page. The only way I have found is to turn the computor off and then reboot. I don't have this problem when using Internet Explorer

    Every time I click on a web site that has an email option the browser starts making untitled web pages and never stops unless I turn the computer off. It is very frustrating to not be able to use an email option when offered by a web site. The only way I can send email messages on the Firefox browser is to go into my hotmail acct. and copy and paste the addresses. I don't have this problem when I use the Internet Explorer browser.

  • Firefox gets problems when 2,7 GB of memory is used by Firefox

    Firefox gets problems when 2,7 GB of memory is used by Firefox. Or more. Like 2,8 GB.
    It started when I read jpost.com with tens of tabs open. I don't remember how many. But I know there was more than 40.
    On the tab I that I was reading, the page turned completely black. Pitch black with nothing else, not even the Firefox interface. It was actually a pitch black shape that looked like a web page in shape. The blackness quickly disappeared and the page was normally readable again. But then it happened again - the page turned black again.
    The same page turns black happened again later.
    One of my browsing sessions had Firefox slow down so much that you could see scrolling happening when I used scrolling.
    Still another time I had 60 tabs open and Firefox worked completely fine without freezes, slowdowns, or black shapes. I could close Firefox by just pressing the red X in the title bar.
    Yesterday, I had 50 tabs open and I experienced a slowdown when I looked at the Breaking News headlines. The headlines would show slower than usual. The Breaking News headlines at jpost.com show the headlines a few words at a time until the headline is completely shown. Then the headline disappears and the next starts showing a few words at a time. And speed in general was not what you normally have with a computer that has 8 GB of memory. And a Core i5 processor. I opened two more tabs from the Breaking News section I had opened. After I opened a new window, Firefox froze. I had to close Firefox from the Task Manager by pressing End process. I had used Firefox for 6 hours without ever closing any of the tabs I had opened.
    In all of these cases, more than 40 tabs were open. In all of these cases, the slow down or freeze meant I had to use Task Manager and then press End process on the Processes tab. In all cases except the two I describe in the next paragraph, I never close any tabs after opening them. No problems have ever happened until Firefox started using 2,7 GB of memory. Until that point, everything is normal with no freezes or slowdowns.
    At two times, I tried to reduce memory usage by closing tabs. However, in both cases this would make Firefox freeze. In one of these cases, Firefox would show something bizarre: there would be about 7 tabs, and one of the tabs would be partly shown. Also, Firefox would show the busy cursor. Firefox did not show how many tabs I actually had. The second time, I tried to close the tabs by clicking Close other tabs in the menu that you get when right-click a tab. The tabs would close fine, but I remember that I opened Gmail and then I did this: I clicked on the Promotions tab. Instead of seeing the tab with the Emails, Firefox showed a busy cursor and the title bar said not responding. Firefox froze.
    The reason might be Adblock Plus memory usage. In Adblock Plus home page, developer Wladimir Palant writes in his blog about how Adblock Plus uses a lot of memory: https://adblockplus.org/blog/on-the-adblock-plus-memory-consumption .

    One more bit of information: I have a Geforce 640 GT graphics card. My graphics card drivers are old- version 311.41. The newest version of the drivers is 340.52. Would a new graphics card driver solve the problem?

    Hi Raja,

  • Design problem when using Area Group Page -- BSP

    We have installed MSS ERP2004 and are using the webdynpro based Area Group Page. From this page we have added links to diffrent BSP application (using BSP-iviews in the PCD).
    The problem:
    When we opens one of these links from the Area Group Page the BSP application is opening but the portal design is not inherited.
    The strange thing is that if we refresh the iview the portal design is inherited.
    Why did it not work when opened at first?
    'Support portal integration' is ticked of in the BSP application.
    'Supply Portal Stylesheet' is set to 'Yes' for the iview in the PCD.
    We are running ERP2004/WAS6.40.
    Anyone with the same experience?
    Regards
    Bjorn
