Syncing Valkyrie V360 LOKI links for Black Myth: Wukong
That perfect combat flow was being ruined by random hitches. I checked the logs and saw my CPU clock plummeting from 5.2GHz to 3.2-3.8GHz in a fraction of a second. I'd set my fan response delay too high because I wanted a silent build, and that obsession with noise became a performance killer. I went into the BIOS, killed all power-saving states, and dropped the fan trigger threshold to 65℃. Now the sensors show cores pinned at 72-76℃, and frame intervals tightened from 18.4-26.1ms to 12.8-15.2ms. I tried ramping up the pump speed first, but it created this awful harmonic resonance noise; I had to shift the radiator mounts by 2mm to kill the humming. This AIO is a beast, but it only works if the response is instant. I switched the software mode from Silent to Performance, and now frame times are locked at 12.8-15.2ms.
