But this looks so weird, you better turn it off completely.If you have a good GPU and have all your settings maxed but want higher performance, change your Reflection Quality to Low instead of Medium or High. "Low" reflections are actually using screen-space reflections, rather than heavy-duty planar reflections. Planar reflections are more accurate, but they're far harder on the CPU, whereas screen space reflections are almost entirely a GPU operation and should lighten the load on your CPU quite a bit.

This game burns through PC's like firewood. Especially capital cities for some reason. In my experience playing this game means you will need a new pc about every 3 years. It trashed my old custom built - was getting 100 degree temps. Which ran it fine at launch. I got a mid-high range MSI gaming laptop which ran ESO like a dream for a few years, but now it's struggling.

I don't know what brand of pc you're buying, but my 6 year old Asus laptop is still going strong. I get lower fps at the same settings, but that's due to changes in the game, not the laptop turning into firewood as you put it.

Like I said the first was a custom desktop and the second was an MSI. What fps do you get in stormhaven after an hour or two of playing? I recently had to change a bunch of settings in the user settings file based on alcast recommendations, I was getting fps tanking down to like 10 or lower when in stormhaven.

What is the CPU of your "Mid-range" MSI gaming laptop, your issues with overheating have nothing to do with ESO but your poor cooling or thermal paste that needs to be replaced.

i doubt that as i have similar issues but can run much more demanding games at much higher settings without issues and i have a gaming desktop gpu... eso simply seems poorly coded

Regardless of ESO's code quality, if your CPU temperature is constantly at 80 degree Celsius, you should consider to check, clean, or upgrade your cooling system. Usually, even mediocre CPU fans are able to keep the temperature below 80 degree during full load on all cores (my experience from prolonged scientific calculations on several machines).
You could do a performance test with full CPU load and check if it stays at 80 degree without throtteling CPU speed, then it should be fine. I don't know if there is a tool for it in Windows, with Linux you'd just calculate non-stop square roots on all cores to heat it up.

My Alienware laptop is 7 years old and I've been playing ESO on it for 6 years and it's not firewood, yet. I do always use a cooling pad and clean out the dust and cat hair regularly.

You may want to run a stress test and see what the temperatures are like. D5 pumps can fail and CLC's will permeate fluid over time.
ESO doesnt even use 50% of my resources...but it drops under 50 fps in trials...i dont know man.

How would i be able to check that? Opening it there is no fluid and running censors the ventilators are ventilating of the CLC...
Honestly i am waiting to buy a new pc to get a new cpu and the 3080 gtx...but corona has kinda delayed the release :-(
