Well to be fair compression/decompression is EXTREMELY CPU intensive even on newest hardware. It was always that way and will always stay that way probably. The more you compress the longer and more CPU intensive it is to decompress No matter if your pc is 10 years old or if it's a rack server with newest hardware
The thing is that it takes a complete ignorance of the concept of compression to suggest that a Fitgirl repack is designed to overheat a CPU when that's just how decompression works.
Fitgirl repacks also aren't nearly as lengthy as he says. Between the time and the inane take on decompression, evidence points to this guy having a shit computer and thinking it's everyone else's fault.
Well yeah computer works computer gets hot that's how it works😂
I think everyone has different opinions about fitgirl repacks back when I hat a more shitty pc it was really sometimes hell to unpack it sadly it took for a couple of games more than 24 hours. But it was getting there I guess the main reason was obviously an old slow HDD for that but at that time I had no clue 😅
Right, but you're at least honest about the quality of your PC there. OP above is not. He's the same kind that complains he can't run a game on Max graphics 4k resolution while using mid-tier hardware from six years ago.
