How to fix thermal throttling on Jonsbo CR-1400 ARGB White?

Right when everyone drops their ultimates, the gameplay just stutters and drops frames, which is a total nightmare. The Jonsbo CR-1400 ARGB White has a bit of a lag in thermal conduction—about 3-5℃—when hitting power peaks, causing my CPU to swing wildly between 82-88℃. I tried capping the processor state at 99% in the power plan, but while it dropped temps by 4℃, my 1% lows plummeted from 85 FPS to 62 FPS, which felt like a huge step backward. I eventually dove into the BIOS to manually map the fan curve, setting 75℃ as the 100% trigger point, and applied a -0.05V offset to the CPU. Monitoring through HWiNFO showed the cores finally settling into a stable 72-76℃ range. I actually tried locking the fans at 2000 RPM first, but the noise was unbearable and didn't even help that much until I switched to a stepped ramp-up. Now the clock stays rock steady at 4.6GHz. Stress tests show frame variance dropped by 15%, with frame times sitting pretty between 5.1-6.4ms on Win11 24H2.
