Fixing voltage drops and crashes in Valorant on ASRock A320M
It's honestly ridiculous that this board crashes in a lightweight game like Valorant. The VRMs on the ASRock A320M-HDV are basically prehistoric, and after a few matches, the VCORE would randomly drop by 0.05V, triggering a memory access violation. I tried lowering all the graphics settings, and while my FPS went from 144 to 200, the crashes didn't stop—total waste of my life. I finally went into the BIOS voltage menu, switched VCORE to manual, and added a 0.025V offset, while locking the RAM voltage at 1.35V. OCCT ran for 4 hours without a single error. One big problem: the VRM temps hit 88℃ immediately. I had to zip-tie a tiny 4cm fan onto the power phases to bring it down to 72-76℃. Now the CPU stays at 68-75℃. I backed up this profile to a USB drive so I don't lose it. The game finally feels snappy and doesn't crash.
