Fixing Thermal Frequency Throttling
Facing thousands of rats, I noticed the frame rate dipping irregularly, which was jarring during critical actions. I tried lowering the power limit to 90% in the driver; temps dropped 5℃, but minimum FPS fell from 45 to 38, which was an unacceptable trade-off. I used the GamePP Fan Curve Configuration Panel to set a stepped increase to 85% speed. Core temp stabilized at 74-79℃ per AIDA64, frequency fluctuations narrowed to ±50 MHz per GPU-Z, and VRAM stayed 85-90℃ per GPU-Z.
