Way to cap Fortnite lobby FPS

[Fibeus]

So I'm running on a fairly powerful system, and even if that wasn't the case Fortnite is using 100% of my GPU when in lobby. While playing the game itself i hit 30%-50%, but idle is 100%. I figured it's gotta do with the fps cap since enabling V-Sync solves the issue. I'm on a 165Hz monitor and I wouldn't use V-sync anyway due to the input lag. Is there a way to actually cap the frames in the lobby ONLY? I mean. I could cap at 60 and then up it when in-game, but manual aint efficient enough. - Fibeus 2018. 

 

Thanks in advance! -Fibeus

Cause I don't like my card at 80 deegres when I leave the game open in the background nor do I want my pc to sound like a speeding car

 

*NOTE I WANNA CAP ONLY IN THE LOBBY*

Then limit your fan speed or get a better cooler for your card?

I think MSI Afterburner/Riva Tuner will do what you want, set it to X then manually change to Y whenever you want.

I was using the Gaming APP from MSI do to its auto OC mode, that's why I didn't consider Afterburner, since I wasn't planning on OC'ing the card. Nice solution nontheless. I'll give it a shot mate!

ok should work fine, set it to the lower amount on start up and turn it up in game.

This might be a good request to send Epic games.

I've just gotten in to the habit of actually shutting the game down. It does not take that long to load back in.

Just cap the game at 200fps with MSI Afterburner?
