I’m checking out the game again (haven’t played since shortly after Storm Legion released) and am finding that the game generates a ton more heat than other games i play (like ESO, GW2, SWTOR). Have any of you experienced something similar? The difference is seriously like i turned on a space heater. It scares me.

Have you checked to see that all fans are functioning and that your cooling profiles are set up correctly?
