  1. Hello Guys! This is my first Forum Post here, so bear with me please haha! So here is my unconvential Setup: I am running an imac 2017 27inch with the i7-7700K and a Radeon Pro 580 8GB Card and 8GB of RAM. I use Bootcamp with Windows 10 Pro to Play Halo MCC and CoD Warzone every now and then. The fans ofcourse run wildly with the Tiny unibody design. While playing warzone i sometimes Encounter a full Freeze of the machine wich is either (what i guess) just the game being still in BETA …. OR the iMac running too hot and thermal throttleing It could also be that i have not enough RAM because 8GB ofcourse is just Minimum to Play cod.... I don't know if a Computer can Freeze because it thermal throttles. Normally it just underclocks and Nothing happens as far as i know. Anyways, i just played a Little round of Warzone and let HWInfo run in the Background: The CPU Package sensor read 102 Degrees celcius max and every of the 4 cores read 99 Degrees the GPU was at 90 Degrees. The Question is now: can/should i reduce the temperatures? I don't think it's very healthy to run it this hot for often… I have already reduced my Settings drastically to just 1080p and i m getting way more than 60fps wich is max for the retina Display anyways. Before that i used it at 2,5k and everything on high with Steady 40-50fps Thank you guys and sorry for the Long text! ps dont hate me for not having a gaming machine, i mostly Play xbox one and use the imac for 3d Rendering, Lightroom and final cut :)
