In The Hunt, using the GIGABYTE RTX 5060 results in screen tearing due to ray tracing heat and power conflicts; should I calibrate airflow and undervolt it?

Hunting for a stable overclock on the GIGABYTE RTX 5060 is a lesson in patience. When Ray Tracing is dialed up, the card hits its power limit almost instantly, causing the clock speed to oscillate violently between 2.5GHz and 1.8GHz according to GPU-Z. This instability creates those agonizing screen tears during fast movement. I spent a week trying to brute-force the temperatures down with case fans on full blast, but all I got was a noisy PC and the same legacy stutters. The breakthrough happened when I opened the voltage curve editor, applied a -0.050V offset, and found the a absolute sweet spot in the frequency curve. Now, the card maintains a rock steady 2.3GHz with peak temps staying at 72C. Does it lower the max benchmark score? By maybe 2%. But the actual gameplay experience is transformed—no more tears, no more jagged frames. Mastering the balance between heat and voltage is the only way to avoid the thermal throttling trap inherent in these compact 50-series cards.
