The de-dusting is really good advice. It can make a ton of difference if you improve airflow. If your laptop actually overheats from high CPU usage... like stops working properly... then you definitely have a cooling issue. Either one or more of your fans are not working properly or airflow is restricted. On the other hand, if it's just getting hot and still functioning properly then it may not be something to be concerned about. I mean, if you are using your laptop actually _on_ your lap and it's making your legs to hot then that's an issue but not an issue with the laptop itself. It might be operating normally. (In ten years, I have not used a laptop that I could actually use on my lap without frying my legs. ) |

Pressing F12 changes render distance. It starts at 128 every time you start the game, and goes to 160, 192, 64 Pressing F9 turns off post-processing effects, which might help Pressing F8 turns on low-quality shaders, which might help Pressing enter to open the chat and typing "/flora low" and "/trees low" (without the quotes) helps a lot of people Your hard drive might affect how long the game takes to load, but I don't think it has any effect on in-game speed. |

Sorry you are having performance problems. Mythruna really isn't optimized for older or lower-power cards, unfortunately. Someday I will work on making it run better on older cards but a) that won't be until after alpha, and b) "older card" may still end up being more powerful than what you have now... since that will be a long time from now. |

That may be out-dated by then, and if you aren't going to really travel with the laptop, you should get a desktop. Desktops are cheaper  |

Build your own desktop dude. I would literally help you through the whole thing if you wanted to build one. I'm just thinking of the beast machine you could make as apposed to buying a $1500 laptop. |

It's not for everyone, of course... but you will feel special.
For reference, the two Mythruna workstations I built two years ago were AMD 6 core beasts with GTX 460s in them... I got good cases, power supplies, RAM, etc. all source from Amazon and they were $800 each. Well, the second one as $900 because I put a blu-ray burner in it.
