Been mining for a few days now and disliked the fact that my CPU was close to a 100 degrees Shocked

Just found out that in windows systems you can set the maximum processor status which keeps the CPU much cooler... tried playing around with it and when setting the maximum processor status to 94 the CPU only gets between 60-70 degrees which should never fuck up you're system.. mining performance also seems much more stable Grin

Maybe someone else also wants to keep his CPU alive you can change the maximum CPU status with the following cmd/powershell commands:

Code:
powercfg -setacvalueindex SCHEME_CURRENT SUB_PROCESSOR PROCTHROTTLEMIN 5
powercfg -setdcvalueindex SCHEME_CURRENT SUB_PROCESSOR PROCTHROTTLEMIN 5
powercfg -setacvalueindex SCHEME_CURRENT SUB_PROCESSOR PROCTHROTTLEMAX 94
powercfg -setdcvalueindex SCHEME_CURRENT SUB_PROCESSOR PROCTHROTTLEMAX 94
powercfg.exe -setactive SCHEME_CURRENT
