Game Runs Hot

This game ate my wife's computer, and my son-in-laws. Mine is OK, ONLY because I stopped playing.

When I did play, the fan was on CONSTANTLY. I am not kidding. CONSTANTLY.

what are your specs? haven't run into this problem myself so it could be some hardware issue

If you're playing a 3D game and the cooling fans aren't running constantly, that's when you'd have an issue! What else would you expect from fans, rather than continued operation?

Not sure why someone would blame this game on "eating" a computer. What does that even mean?

I have a decent PC, BUT my card blew a few months back and I had to throw in my old 750 ti. Because of this and the amount of time I play games I installed a 3rd party software to monitor everything. Mostly my temps.

I was worried to high hell of blowing this card as I would have to sell my left nut to replace it with a new one. But I do not hit over 7o and I run very well even with my old outdated card.

My point, I am not sure its the game. could have been just real bad coincidence/luck that you lost two pcs on same game. I think that if this was an issue it would be more known.

Are these PCs in a dusty area, or around smokers? Smoke not only slows ur fans but also coats your hardware with the same yellow gunk. causing everything on your MB to get hotter.

do you ever get all the dust out of your computers can of air or similar, a friend said temp was crazy hot they had never cleaned out dust and it had blocked the fins of the heat sink so no cooling and fans running like mad. just a thought.
