How to stop Huntkey Blizzard T600 from throttling in Black Desert?
The difference after this tweak was insane. In packed cities, my CPU was hitting 92℃, causing the clock to tank from 4.8GHz to 3.2GHz, which is painfully obvious in Remastered mode. The stock curve on the Huntkey Blizzard T600 is just too weak below 80℃, so the heat just sits on the cores. I tried the 'Balanced' power plan in Windows, but the frametimes were still swinging between 20-50ms; software tweaks just aren't enough here. I rebooted into the BIOS, set the fans to Full Speed, and optimized my case intake. HWMonitor showed the peak temps crash from 94℃ down to 74-80℃, and the clock speeds finally stopped fluctuating. It sounded like a jet engine at first, but I dialed the sub-70℃ range back to 1200 RPM to find a balance. Now it stays at 68-74℃ and the frametimes are rock solid at 5.1-6.4ms. It's finally playable in the cities.
