I just tried it and after playing for 3 hours, I started getting warnings that my CPU was overheating.
And then my PC switched off as I was saving and quitting.

I have a pretty good PC (Quad Core i7, 32GB of RAM, GTX 770 3GB) and Water Cooling and Fan Cooling. It seems by doing this you are risking overworking the CPU. The Sims 3 is already a resource hog as it is, but I was curious to see if this would make a difference.

It does, but not enough to risk ruining my PC. Running that hot to the point it turned off is going to cause damage. Shame though, since I won’t play Sims 4 unless they have toddlers. I might go back to playing Sims 3 on Xbox.

I guess I did it myself or it has been that way since the beginning.

It’s above my tech level though.Looking into it, looks like the Park Control is Windows only.
