It's a laptop so unless it's specifically designed as a desktop replacement (as in 17"+ with big fans and sufficient cooling), it will inevitably run hot. Opening it up and cleaning out the heats..

I don't know...I just don't have this issue. I'm only running an i7-7700k, but I have MSI fan control on auto, and I never heard it spin up from slow speed yet.

So many people blame Valheim for heating up their PC. It's not Valheim. It's your hardware and airflow trying to tell you something. No amount of optimization is going to reduce temps. They are what t..

This what happen when you buy Intel processors.But honestly, i recommend you to change thermal paste.

I'm running an i5 10400f 16gb and a 3060 ti. At 60 fps i never go over 38 °C. How many case fans do you have and you CPU cooling system?

What else do you have running? There should be no reason you are running hot. Maybe look into your cooling system? Never hurts. I run a dedicated server, run the game and another server launched via t..

A lot of the 9th gen CPUs run hotter than their stock heat sinks can support. If you are using the CPU fan that came with the chip (or what was in the PC when you bought it), you should consider repla..

I have an i9-9900k with an RTX 2080Ti that had a major heat problem. Was running max temp of 85 deg. I installed MSI Afterburner, jacked up my fans speed and locked my fps to 60. All is fine now. I ru..

If your PC is getting hot it's entirely a hardware issue. A properly built and maintained PC in a room temperature environment can run all process at 100% indefinitely while maintaining a safe, stable..

Consider opening your PC case, and giving that heatsink a dusting.My PC gets a cleaning every few months--and every time, after I'm done and close the case back up, its average running temp is several..

While waiting on optimization, it might be a good idea to replace the thermal paste if your Temps are really bad.

You have to drop them.

OK, thanks for the encouragement and advice everyone, I'll give it a try! I'll hunt a few trolls first and see how that goes. It sounds like the Elder shouldn't be too much more difficult than they ar..

About the movement speed penalty: only weapons/shields and leg/torso armor has penalties. => Get the heaviest head piece you can get, always wear it.

Get some troll armor. Upgrade your finewood bow and go kill The Elder.

Did you try the LFG section of the forums?
