    Every time I start P.B. Winterbottom my graphics card jumps up to 90°C and keeps going higher even when I'm on the desktop.. does anyone else have that kind of problem and maybe a fix? 
     
    I'm running the game with a GTX 275 and I've never had a similar problem with any other game before.. not even SC2 without the 60fps patch.

    1. Dunno.
    2. lolololololololololololololololol
    3. Will open now.
     
    EDIT: OK. After booting the game (I have a GTX 460) my GPU usage % is 99, which I never see. My current GPU temperature is 80 degrees Celsius and  still rising.
     
    This is really strange...
     
    Wow my computer is acting so sluggish with P.B. running wtf...
     
    87 degrees Celsius seems to be my cap.

    That's exactly what happens to me. My graphics card stops @ about 95°C and my CPU (Phenom II 955) is pretty much being "prime'd" and I don't really want that. 
     
    @RockmanBionics: Hehe, yeah.

    Yeah for some reason the game is totally unplayable on PC it seems. I have the same problem. Loading times take forever. Seems like the worst coding ever.

    At least I already have it on 360, and it was only 50 cents.

    @emem: Try forcing v-sync in your graphic card's control panel.

    @teh_pwnzorer: That's the first thing I thought of, too, but it didn't help.
