Graphics Card İssue SOLVED
« on: February 04, 2015, 03:15:54 pm »
I'm new to SFML and just started learning, and while I was trying it out I noticed that when I am displaying something on the window even simple things like one texture, I hear noises from inside the computer which is probably the graphics card fan, and the gpu heats up, activity increases is it because of the clear draw display cycle in the main loop and is this normal?

Your program probably uses 100% of CPU and GPU, make it less intensive by activating vertical synchronization.

Tried that but it didnt make a difference then I just set the frame rate to 10 and it worked like a charm. Thank you for answering though! :)

Then it's probably your graphics driver that is configured to force vertical synchronization off.
