Now my cpu temp is going through the roof! Before it was at 60c now its at 100c!
i7 920 no overclock

well ventilated system (case never over 40c, processor never over 50c normally)

I shut it down. No way I'm frying my cpu.

    Did you do something different?

    Edit: oh, you probably mean with the new patch.

    Yeah, I changed nothing on my system. Just patched it.

    I'm finally in the game, but I haven't encountered these issues as yet. Even playing with every single setting maxed out (except for AA, which is disabled on my Radeon HD 5770s), and at 1920x1200, my overclocked Phenom II X4 CPU only hit 45C and my GPUs only hit 58C.

    It's hard to say why this issue is hitting some people so hard, but leaving others alone. For the GPU issue, one could blame it on a problem with a certain version of driver, but that wouldn't make a difference with CPUs.

    Who knows :confused::confused:

    I guess it helps to post system specs:

    cpu: intel i7 920
    gpu: sapphire ati radeon 4870x2
    os: windows 7 premium 64bit
