Fixing pump pressure and heat on Valkyrie V360 AIO?
It's honestly ridiculous that a 360mm AIO would let my CPU hit 95℃ in Outlaws. I was expecting top-tier cooling, but the temps were jumping all over the place, which usually means the pump speed isn't syncing with the load. I tried setting the pump to 100% in the BIOS, but it created this annoying vibration/humming noise that was almost as bad as the heat. I ended up rerouting the tubes to avoid kinks and used the proprietary software to set a non-linear curve, keeping the pump at 2800 RPM between 60-80℃. In an OCCT stress test, the cores stayed locked between 72-78℃. I almost tore the whole thing apart thinking the radiator was clogged with dust, only to find out it was just a driver conflict with the pump controller. Now the fans stay at 1300 RPM and it's dead silent. I've backed up the pump profile so I never have to deal with this mess again.
