Silencing DeepCool AS500 in MGS Δ
High-load rendering in METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER was noisy; my DeepCool AS500 ARGB spiked to 2200 RPM, creating 45dB of noise per HWiNFO64. I tried balanced power mode, which reduced noise but dropped my frame rate from 120 to 85 FPS, an unacceptable compromise. Using GamePP Fan Curve Config Panel, I raised the PWM threshold to 70℃ and lowered the fan speed cap to 2000 RPM. HWiNFO64 confirmed CPU temperature stabilized at 78℃, and fan noise dropped to 38dB. AIDA64 showed stable temps at 75-80℃, so I finally backup the quiet profile.
