Tips & Tricks6

GPU Temp Sensor

GPU temperature reported 1°C, this is a sensor reading failure. Temperature data for this session is unreliable. Try updating GPU drivers or check if monitoring software is conflicting.

High GPU Usage

GPU usage hit 82% while CPU sat at 46%. Your 780M Graphics is the bottleneck, upgrade, lower graphics settings or resolution to increase FPS.

High RAM Usage

RAM usage peaked at 90% of 16 GB. Close background apps to free up memory, or upgrade to more RAM.

Single Channel RAM
