Can a voltage curve fix CPU throttling in Wukong?
Trying to run Black Myth: Wukong on this cooler is like trying to put out a forest fire with a spray bottle. At Ultra settings, the CPU hit 98℃ instantly, and my clocks plummeted from 5.2GHz to 3.8GHz, tanking my FPS from 60 to 35. I tried maxing out all the fans, but it sounded like a construction site and only dropped the temp by 3℃—a total waste of time. I finally went into the BIOS and set up a mild undervolt, dropping the core voltage from 1.35V to 1.28V, and swapped the rear exhaust for a higher static pressure fan. Max temps are now capped at 85-89℃, and I can actually hold 4.8GHz. I tried pushing it to 1.20V, but the game crashed during scene transitions, so 1.28V is the sweet spot. Average temps are now 75-82℃. Saved the voltage and fan profiles for a backup.
