Just played the game and its heavy on my ROG

[eak]

Okay first off this game is awesome!!! but I'm a bit concerned coz its heavy on my ROG laptop. Although I haven't experienced any lags or anything like that, I've monitored cpu temp and its really high like more than 80. Is this normal?

Yeah it's only using one core and the game is CPU intensive so nothing to worry about =)

The game normally uses 100% CPU, and just renders more frames when you have a faster CPU. So that's normal, but your CPU temperature should depend on the cooling you have. Normally a CPU shouldn't have any issues with running at 100% (as long as you didn't overclock it). If you have temperature issues, it might be best to look at your cooling (f.e. open up your computer and dust it out).

Might be time to get a can of compressed air...

Since it's laptop make sure that the fan vents on the bottom are clear that should help keep the temps under control and as sanderd mentioned blowing out the dust will help greatly. Should be some YouTube vids on how to get into your particular model.

Enjoy the Choice

Enabling vsync in the config will cap the fps at your monitor refresh rate, and probably decrease CPU usage.
