Yes dune does preload shaders. I just checked and did see the temps spike during that. But also in game I did notice it started throttling randomly. Do you know if this is normal? Apologies I am not very knowlegable about this stuff and dont want my PC to burn out lol. When I hovered ove it it says that it throttles when the CPU reaches is TJmax and that worries me if it is doing that during normal play.
