How to stop Jonsbo CR-1400 from crashing Elden Ring?
While exploring Stormveil Castle, the game would just freeze and crash after about two hours—a total performance cliff that made me want to throw my monitor. The Jonsbo CR-1400 is a small cooler, and it just couldn't handle the power spikes, with temps hitting 96-98℃ and triggering an emergency motherboard shutdown. I tried power-saving mode, but that dropped my FPS to 40, which is just depressing and didn't really solve the root cause. I finally went into the BIOS, locked the fan speed at 2000 RPM, and applied a -0.05V core voltage offset to reduce the heat. Peak temps dropped to 82-86℃, and the crashes stopped entirely. I did have a few random reboots after the first undervolt, so I had to dial it back to -0.03V to get it stable. Now it's running perfectly. I saved the config as a backup, and my RAM temps are staying between 62-68℃. It's a tight fit for this CPU, but it works now.
