How to stop CPU throttling on Maxsun B850M WIFI in Far Cry 6?
Rendering those tropical jungles at 4K is breathtaking, but the heat was insane. The Maxsun Terminator B850M WIFI couldn't handle the 200W transient spikes; core temps hit 95℃ within 15 seconds, slamming into the thermal wall. I tried enabling PBO Auto-Overclocking, which was a disaster—temps hit 105℃ and the PC just shut down. I realized I was fighting physics. I capped PL1 at 125W and PL2 at 150W, and set the fan curve to hit 100% the moment it touched 75℃. RTSS showed the clocks finally stabilizing between 4.6-4.9GHz, with FPS hovering around 110-120. I noticed a 6% dip in multi-core benchmarks after the cap, but I clawed that back by applying a -0.03V offset. Core temps stayed at 82-87℃. It's a compromise, but it stopped the stuttering.
