Might be helpfull for people with overheating issues. Frame rate limiter
Bakermiaz:
If I was getting 67°C with vsync on I wouldn't bother with this limiter Viviane.
My old computers graphics card (nVidia 6800) was getting core temperatures up to 127°C.
I am surprised it hasn't died on me yet like my older ATI9800 pro.
The one I use now (nVidia 8800) is just a little above 90°C while gaming, with its fan duty cycle at 100%.
I like to keep things quite, fan 60-70% and temperatures under 80°C. The limiter helps me do this.
Sounds like you don't have any overheating problem.
Your card is running cooler while gaming than mine is when just idle at the desktop, which it does at 76°C
Viviane:
I was trying to keep my GPU under 60°C. I am glad to know that 70/80° is ok. Thanks :)
Usually my GPU temp are : 44° idle / 58° while gaming (mostly MMO's).
idtaminger:
Nevermind. Somehow my comp picked up a virus between yesterday + today. A virus scan fixed the issue.
jello:
I only seemed to get overheating on the loading screen and menus, which seemed utterly bizarre to me. However, this tool seems to have completely fixed that problem. I guess the loading screen just wanted a high fps for whatever reason.
Thanks!

Excellent - from 99% GPU usage to 23%. Very nice. Thankee.
I couldn't get it to work at first with ATI Tray Tool's onscreen display on. For anyone using that, you may need to turn it off first. (osd, not the entire program.)
Yes, getting 1409fps at movie and 600 at menus wasn't really neccessary, since I notice no difference between that and 60.
