Fixing response lag on Gigabyte RTX 5060 AERO OC in WuWa?
That silky smooth combat feeling was getting ruined by sudden stutters. I checked the backend and saw the GPU temp jump from 55℃ to 82-86℃ in 0.6 seconds, which absolutely nuked my core clocks. I'd set the fan start delay too high because I wanted a silent build, but that obsession with noise was killing my performance. I cut the response time from 3 seconds to 0.4 seconds and pushed the max threshold to 1400-1600 RPM. Now the peak temp is locked at 71-75℃, and frame intervals dropped from 12.2-20.4ms to 9.5-11.2ms. I tried adding more fans at first, but it just created this annoying resonance noise until I shifted the mounting by 3mm. This card is a beast if you actually let the fans spin. I switched the profile from Silent to Performance in the app, and now frame times are a rock-steady 5.1-6.4ms.
