[Alpha Trees Causing Overheating]

Hi Lillith, can you recommend what to change, I'm using regular SL viewer, I tried random changes, but nothing I did had any effect?

Thanks for the replies.

Well it seems to be just big sculpted trees, no problems at all with mesh even at the same size scale.

I run my graphics at mid/high, that covers my needs in SL, lowering to lowest does make the fans turn to normal again and ironically the tree still looks the same, but the rest of the world looks terrible. I will just avoid the older sculpted trees that's all.

Render Volume I reset at 1.

Many thanks.

Hi thanks for replying.

No I have no issues with anything else, no lag on busy sims, my pc is perfectly quiet. It is also a new PC, 3 months old. Ironically my old PC never had this problem.

Its just frustrating that my PC becomes noisy at the sight of big alpha trees, I wanted to use a tree at my home, but soon as I rez it,  the fans go to max.

I know it's the alpha, because if I turn off alpha in the render settings it stops, but of course I see no leaves then.

What causes that to happen, and is there any setting I can try?

As the title says, my pc runs fine in SL, however when I am at a sim with big alpha trees, the fans kick in real loud. My graphics card is a GTX 1060 6GB.

I have tried different settings but none work, I'm not sure what to change in the Nvidia settings.

Any help please, I'm really frustrated?
