Shaders roasting my CPU!

I have a 9800X 3D with a pretty decent cooler. Temps max out around 65C in all the games I play, and shader compilations in most games max out at 81C. However this game, bloody hell 93C when doing shader compilation. That can't be right?

Hype train

Watched a fair chunk of gameplay and I'm not getting what this game does that has people hyped ?

Looks kinda low-budget to me, the gunplay looks decent at best, the sound is bang average, the map is very visually underwhelming, like a less polished version of a generic autumn battlefield map (only running on some dated-looking engine).... and most importantly, the gameplay just looks super generic.

All the titlles to the videos are like 'WAR DOGS IS INSANEEEEE' and then its a 20 minute video of the most generic ass gameplay imaginable lol

The main thing which seems to be generating hype from what I can see, is the basebuilding and logistics/supplies aspect. Although those are things which require the main attribute which is sorely lacking from most online shooters....teamwork

UPDATE : Windows Update KB5121003

Windows 11's August update is crashing games and causing PC problems

Following the installation of the August security patch for Windows 11, some users have reported serious problems with their systems. This is a known issue, and here’s how to resolve the error.

I had the same kind of crashes while playing Wardogs. In my case, the crash dumps pointed to the old inpoutx64.sys driver (INVALID_KERNEL_HANDLE / 0x93).

I disabled the driver via CMD with:
sc.exe config inpoutx64 start= disabled

Then rebooted the PC. Wardogs has been stable since. Might be worth checking if you also have inpoutx64.sys installed/running.

You can check with:
sc.exe query inpoutx64

I wouldn't delete the driver, just disable it for testing.

same as last time out - zero comms just a load of folk running round solo. sounds are still poor, imo, in so far as all the guns sound the same. the silly A10 brrrrt brrrrt flyover every 2 mins needs to sod off too as it adds nothing to the game.

that's maybe a bit strong. i certainly wouldn't say it's an utter pile of crap but it's definitely getting over hyped for some reason.
