0 Xzorn Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Unless you're still using an CRT monitor for art or something there's no reason to have a screen saver. Unless you mean power save mode, which you kinda don't need either, least for the monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Praxxor Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Do you have Borderless-Fullscreen on? That setting usually causes that kind of problems from my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 redeyedtreefrog Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Now, I'm sure there IS a way to set certain programs to make them prevent the machine from entering an idle state, but if I had to guess, I'd say that it's probably more a setting you'd have to set for your computer, as opposed to a setting in-game.

0 SkeinsOfFitzsimmons Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Are you using the keyboard or an controller? Non-direct input will usually trip the screensaver, unless you're using a Xbox controller. Honestly, I'd just turn the screensaver off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Image Persistence is not permanent for LCD like it is for CRT. It's unlikely for a consumer to suffer any permanent damage by leaving an LCD on a fixed screen for long periods.

Keyboard and mouse, but i wonder why this only with Warframe happens. I try find something in High perfomance plan, but nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warframe on 3840 x 2160, become small and windowed. Yep, i have that too, but after 15 mins and its killing my brain why only WF do that. Steve should program some kind of HW acceleration to prevent this Edited February 26, 2017 by Myscho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
