How to backup PCcooler overclock settings for stability?
I compared two different approaches to stop the throttling. Method one was just raising the power limit, but that caused temps to swing wildly between 78℃ - 84℃, triggering thermal protection and causing the clocks to tank. Method two involved syncing voltage and cooling: first, I used an OC tool to tweak the voltage curve (lowering the offset), then I redefined the fan speed curve, and finally backed up the stable config. The dynamic amplitude showed core temps stabilizing at 76℃ - 82℃, and the frequency curve went from a jagged saw-tooth to a flat line. No more instant stutters from throttling, and input lag is rock steady at 10ms - 15ms. The software check confirms the OC backup is running perfectly. Just cranking the power limit just makes you hit the wall faster; undervolting and optimizing the fan curve is the only way to actually unlock the performance.
