My Question or Issue

Just opening the app makes the graphics card start to overheat, without opening anything else.

Hey @Nerakimoi 

 

You can try disabling hardware acceleration within the app to see if that helps.

To find it, click on Menu dots - View.

 

It's kind of weird it overheats the graphics card though. I'd recommend ensuring the cooling solutions are working properly.

Also, it's always a good thing keeping the operating system fully updated!

 

Let me know how it goes : )
