Is there any way to tune down CPU/GPU usage? Getting thermal throttling.

Hello!

The game quickly consumes my resources to the point I have throttle and over 90°C temps few seconds after launch. My laptop is nvidia 1060 6GB + i7 7700, should be enough.

I'm still new to the series, so I have no idea in which chapter he talks about these tunes in live code.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers!
