I am noticing that the scenes that bounce the cpu load have a visual frequency to them...meaning they have lots of small spots of reflection, specularity, etc. all over the scene.

Not really complaining, as I am rendering faster overall than before. But, for a second there...I thought I had burnt out a core or something!

*I had been using the Task Managrers Affinity to just use 3 cores only as the stock heatsink/fan lets my cpu go right up to its max operating temperature. Not a good thing to do for any extended amount of time, imho.

I'll be ordering a new cpu cooler, that's fer sure, lol.
