Fixing RT620 ARGB cooling and FPS drops in Black Desert
It's honestly frustrating—this cooler let my system stutter like crazy in city centers, and the experience was just awful. The RT620 ARGB is decent, but the default sync policy is too slow to react, letting CPU temps swing between 85-91℃. I tried using software to force all fans to sync, but it created a weird resonance in the chassis, and the FPS kept jumping between 60 and 45. I was beyond annoyed. I eventually ditched the software sync and set independent temperature trigger points for each fan in the BIOS, moving the max speed threshold up to 75℃. RTSS shows the frame rate is finally stable at 60-65 FPS, with temps pinned at 72-78℃. While cleaning the cooler, I found the exhaust was clogged with dust, which had killed my airflow by about 20%; a blast of compressed air fixed that. Memory temps are now 42-48℃. I've saved the BIOS config and exported it as a backup file.
