I just got a new laptop and I’ve been wanting to learn how to use Unreal 5. Earlier today I tried running it with the third-person template and after messing around for a while I noticed the fans on my laptop were going crazy and the bottom of the laptop and keyboard were getting very hot. I shut everything down and waited for a while for it to cool off before turning the laptop back on. Currently I’m thinking of looking into a cooling pad for the laptop, but I was wondering if there’s anything else I could do to have Unreal 5 run and not worry about overheating until I get the cooling pad. I’m not sure there’s any settings I could change or something.
My new laptop has the Intel Core 17. This laptop was a gift to me, so I’m not sure of all of its specs yet. Thanks for any help or suggestions.
