I play Just Cause 2 PC on my Radeon 4850 (single slot) and no matter how I tweak the graphic settings (from lowest to highest), Afterburner utility keeps telling me that JC2 is using ~99% GPU utilization.
At that level, R4850 temp could hit easily 100C, cranking the fan to maximum speed.
R4850 clock rate is 500/750 when idle and 625/993 when under load. Afterburner lets me cap with 500/750 under load but JC2 hogs the GPU nonetheless.
Can anyone suggest a way to cap my GPU in terms of GPU usage or frame rate?
BTW, I plan to buy a replacement in AMD's Southern Islands (R7XXX series) once it is out.

Add to the game's command line parameters:
/frameratecap=nwhere n is the frame rate.
