  1. Overheating is common if GPUs/CPUs run full throttel long time inside of notebooks. Cooling is not as effective as inside a tower PC.

    Google for undervolting GPU or CPU, depending which chip is overheating, you'll find helpful advices.

    Anther trick could also help:

    Control Panel -> Hardware & Sound -> Power options -> Change plan settings -> Change advanced power settings

    In the Power Options window, expand Processor power management, and then expand Maximum processor state.

    On battery/Plugged In are the options. Lower them by 5%. If it's fine than, you can rise 1% stepwise as long it is still not overheating.

    5% is nothing you'd really ever notice performancewise and for me 1% plus undervolting did the trick. Since I changed that, I had no issues with overheating anymore whatsoever. Even not during summer with 30+°C room temperature. (Well, I still had probs with overheating but the notebook didn't)

    Note: undervolting can destabilize your system, if you lower voltage too much. Make sure to know what your're doing, before you do it. However, if you stick to the tutorials, it should work fine. I'm not that much of a techie, but I got it to work.

    Manufactures tend to give by default more voltage than needed to make sure each produced chip will run stable. But most chips run perfectly fine with lower voltage. This does not hamper performance, but it affects the heat of the chip significantly. Before CPU went way over 90°C and since this tweak never over 75°C again.

    A fan pad could also help, either on its own or in addition.

    @Leopardus - heat paste can be the reason but it usually does not age that fast I guess. I think it is more probable, the vans are stuffed with dust. Maybe it is already enough to clean the air ways?

    I have a small venue, a small dance troupe and we’ve had a ball rehearsing , building music sets and even I have dusted off my building gloves. We’re gonna have fun and let other waste their money on boosting if they so choose. 

    Thanks for your post @AtticusFinch. To read that we managed to share some good times with others, convinces us, that it was worth while. I quoted a paragraph of yours, as it resembles the conclusions we made.

    Take care, stay safe and have a good time.

  3. Pity indeed @Anaganda. You would have been most welcome.

    I had the pleasure so see some of your builds "in action" and it was utter fun. I adore your skills of building. Always top notch.

    Back to topic, the system is first and foremost made to make ppl throw coins. Everyone has the right to see it differrently, but our conclusion is like that. And we won't, that's up to us and we handle it our way.

    At least before the change we have never seen this kinda battles of crown spamming as present days, and we dislike it.

    How you handle it, is your way. This was an explanation, not the attempt to missionize anyone. Your coins, therefore you're free to drop 'em where ever you like.

    Case closed.

     

  4. Well, the present situation breaks down to one rule: the more you pay, the more attention you get. Considering this a good system is also telling a lot.

    Making observations (gathering data) is one thing, drawing conclusion is still another. It is also true, that not everyone interprets everything the same way and therefore different people come to different conclusions even while based on the same observations.

    Anyhow, now it works actually the way, that the more you pay the more attention you raise.

    Systems like this work like Monopoly. If money is the only adjusting screw, at the end only the biggest fish survives. If you come to different conlusions, welcome. We did come to ours and therefore we quit, 'cos the present rules are no rules we judge as worth while to support. Therefore we take measures and don't go along with it anymore. If we would like to spend our time in a competition race, we would simply go and play Monopoly. But Jazz and I agree that Monopoly is a rather boring and crappy game.

    Before it was also counting how well your event was received. If people liked it and stayed it did also matter. This was also not perfect, agree. But perfect solutions are rather rare. Nevertheless, in our humble opinion it still was better than now, where only more crowns and even very very much more crowns count.

    Besides this was only one more reason, that triggered our decision, but this is no topic for a forum.

  5. Hi folks,

    we quit.

    It had been fun and we like to thank all who supported us during the past years. We sincerely hope we managed to give you some pleasent moments at our venues. Jazz and I can ensure you, we had.

    But since we don't have that fun anymore, it's time to close the curtain. There are several reasons for it, we won't discuss here nor anywhere. Only one thing, which did really discourage us a lot, I'm gonna mention here.

    This is directly connected with the way the locations are listed now @Gizmo . Probably it is gaining some bucks, uh? But from our point of view it has a harmful side effect.

    Besides we already payed for our subscription
    Besides we put our efforts into building our locations
    Besides we pay for a stream server (most cases something relyable with broadwith, quality and unlimited listeners comes not for free)
    Besides we put efforts into engaging dancers, DJs, yadda yadda yadda

    And besides all this we should pay in addition XGold to get on top and noticed?

    Haha, yeah of course!

    Get yourself other suckers, we are out. Certainly every day a dumb one rises and we guess it pays off for you. However, it won't be the brightest idea on the long run, as we consider it. A good friend of ours did already quit month ago and now our time has come to say no more. The dumb ones rising tomorrow won't be us again.

    I wanna be damned if I ever again pay 300 for a crown under this circumstances.

    We don't have any hope that things may change to the better again, since a nice rally of groups established, who are throwing crowns like confetti on a 4th July parade and we suggest it pays well?
    But Jazz and I won't.

    Our friend was not the first to resign and we won't be the last, we are convinced.

    We tell you, what this will most probably lead to. Go downtown and have a look around. What do you see?
    We know already what you'll see, not even knowing where you live.
    But we can tell you nevertheless.
    You see McDonalds, Mango, Zara, Douglas, Starbucks, IKEA and so on and so forth. Different city, same crap. Variety, individualism, uniquity died.

    It will be the same here, since this system makes it too harsh for tiny independend groups or individuals to compete with the "companies".

    So what?
    There are so many, who consider currywurst a meal, so nothing for you to worry about, right?
    Right!
    If fish fingers are fish enough, one may pretty well give a shit about the oceans.

    Doesn't matter anyway, that's just our 2 cents.

    Perhaps here and then we'll open one of our clubs and play some tunes. If you like, have a look at the lower part of the locations list. You'd be cordially welcome. Especially if you like to listen to tunes, which aren't played too often elsewhere. EDM free zone, promised!
    So far Jazz and I are done with putting any more efforts in organizing events.

    regards
    Jazz and Pandorra

     

  6. I can add to the laggy experiance too. Switching off breast physics increases frame rate noticeably.

    Besides,

     

    We all had a good laugh now, dutyboundly.

    Can we now get back to serious please? For me it looks even worse after the fix, though I thought this would be barely possible.

    Lipstick works again that's neat, thanks - as well for the new cloths and pose.

     

     

  7. Hi folks,

    we invite you to a brand new location of ours. On Sunday we'll open Disco Blue for the very first time. Besides being a Grand Opening, which in itself is so very special already, we are proud to announce the premier of a very new Star on the DJ Skys.

    HannaS will be on the turn tables for the very first time. Please help, to give her a very warm welcome.

    See you there.

    regards
