    I can't say I am overly familiar with these games, but I can't imagine you will have much problem running them. At most you'll have to reduce some setting to medium and maybe reduce the resolution just a bit.

    Specs are more than enough to run the game, maybe not on HIGH settings, but med most likely with no problem... And seeing that you have a 1647 makes me think your issues are most likely not a throttle issue...

    So, I am not sure what the problem is! Run a ThrottleStop log and upload it and you will get some feedback that will help you.

    I would PM Unclewebb for a link to the latest version, otherwise the first post the the 1640 throttling thread has an older version I believe...

    What you really want to do first is open ThrottleStop (don't turn it on), click the "log file" checkmark, play the game that is having the problem assuming it works at all, and upload the ThrottleStopLog that will be located in the ThrottleStop folder. Play until there is a problem, then wait a couple minutes and exit the game (and uncheck the "log file" button).

    The last 4mins don't look good, but can't tell if you had stopped playing by then. Also check the GPU temps and how that's behaving.. ie: is it down-clocking due to temps (don't know if this has been fixed on the 1647 and at which BIOS version).
