Lucifier 257 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Hello nN kinda off topic; I use 2,3 softwares on my laptop for designing stuff ; Render(sketchup,Layout),Photoshop,CADSo while i use em' laptop gets so freeze in time interval, can use anything else on sideways(not even browser properly) Graphic spec -: 960Gtx RAM -: 8gb Cant figure whats the problem, 960gtx should be enough for graphic control and 8gb ram enough to work smoothlyand do multi-task. Doesn't it? If not please help me sort it. Please openly comment/discuss on to help me out. ThanksnN Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ARMO13 169 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 sound like cpu overheating, check your CPU temperature, usually in laptop they run hotter and can freeze (because they don't have giant heat pipe or fan..they just have blower style fan..if its temperature problem use external laptop cooler to reduce cpu heat I have 8gb of ram with integrated graphic card ((CPu graphic)) and i can run autocad 2017 revit MEP,REVit..and other program same time with no problem at all...

Puddingsbane 1153 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 its i7-6700HQ [email protected] (8 CPUs) That's poor I guess,yes? Not poor at all, still get's beaten by a good ol haswell but it's not poor. with 4 cores and 8 threads running with boost at 3.5ghz it should do fine so i think your problem is in cooling that beast. run a few stress tests simultaneously to simulate your work load on it, watch the temps and see if it thermal throttles Lucifier likes this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Substanz 4950 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 @@Lucifier: Most of those software are core usage eater, more there are, more they will be used. If you're not pressed by the time, i suggest you to reduce the amount of threads used by each software (if possible in options). Yes laptop aren't so good in cooling but you can fix this issue by following my proposition, only allow the half part of your thread's amount for encoding processus, so in your case 4 threads. Check if it's better and suits you. I'm using also a 6700hq and C4D which is clearly ressources eager but modulable and setable. Ps: if one of your software doesn't allow you to reduce ressources usage, you can set windows (task manager) to reduce the allocated ressources to "low" directly on the name of the software's processus.

Let us know ♥ Hey subzz ♥Sorry for late one, didn't get time to be available (uni's pressure) Thanks so much, didn't knew much about those terms; "thread" so will try to reduce those (if I'm able to and if I know how to,xD) We'll let you very soon^^Thanks again, also to PudPud :D nN♥♥♥ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bartolo 111 Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 In other words disable hyper threading Disabling HT you will half your maximun number of simultaneos operation... Sub tips is reducing the number of thred(so the number of simultaneous operation that cpu can elaborate) for each program. Program 1 will use 4 threadprogram 2 will use 2 threadprogram 3 will usw 2 thread In this case all programs are running at a low speed but are running toghether with no overlapping problem. We can say that Lucifer should split his calculating power between his programs and don't let programs get all the power that them want ^^ Lucifier likes this Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you are running 15-20 simultaneously operation and you can elaborate maxium 8 at time you will have freeze ^^ Lucifier likes this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
