My GPU, which was the weakest part of my PC when I purchased it, is due to be changed shortly before Legion
Now, this week, when I tried to play a relatively demanding game (Warhammer Total War), I got suprisingly solid performance (FPS in the high fifties with high resolution and middle settings), with however the fan making a very audible noise while playing (WTW, and not other games like for instance Fallout IV).
Now, that question will sound really silly, but does the fan making noise (obviously, I mean more than usual) means the hardware is taxed more than it should be ? Because, as I said, I'm going to get a new GPU by september, and I could very well wait a few months to avoid burning a component or something...
