Just wondering if you find the game heavy on processing, ie your gpu and cpu get quite hot in multiplayer
I don't have that issue. You can see my specs in my signature below. I am still on stock thermal paste and I never go above 75°C with fans on full blast. Maybe your system management is set to conservative with the fan cooling/noise or you have bad paste or your system could just be causing bugs. Make sure to update all your drivers.
Its my honest oppinion that the load on GPU/CPU shouldnt be be much (or any?) higher in MP than as example in a custom race with a lot of AI bots. ByTheWay: My own temps in LB mode is GPU(58c) & CPU(50c) on my slightly undervolted system
should be even lower in mp compared to driving with AI's cuz ur game doesnt have to simulate and calcuate a path for the AI, mp cars are essentially just set by the position the server tells you they are at, and that doesnt happen very often per second either
