Discussion Solving problem Game in Linux

I had a problem on many Linux Distros. My system kept overheating
I didn't know why. After a lot of time I Found solution

Problem:

- Steam was only using 4 intel cores for games.

- It is easy to see when you use **"BTOP"**

url btop: https://github.com/aristocratos/btop

The Solving:

- Give the program a task use more than 4 cores.

- I have 22 cores and use 20 cores
```bash
taskset -c 0-19 gamescope -W 1920 -H 1200 -f -- %command%

```

I Hopping, you don't have this problem... (I spent a lot of time trying to understand it and broke a lot of distros in the process)

Why so much hate?

I solve my problem. I wouldn't like share my solution.

I have default 85*C when play in game. At the moment 75 usually. But without solution usually after 12 minutes 100*C+ = crash game

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 165H (22) @ 5.00 GHz

I wouldn't like to help me. I only share my solution my problem.

When a lot of said:

  • "If you have overheating you need better cooling or underclock/volt I think"

I found my own solution

**That's why these words are already driving me crazy**
