Solving power delivery issues for Judgment on Galax B760M D4
Walking through the crowded areas of Kamurocho, the frame rate started fluctuating wildly, which really messed with my timing and precision. The power delivery on the Galax B760M was hitting a wall, with core temps jumping between 84-91℃, causing the clock to bounce between 3.6GHz and 4.2GHz. I initially tried undervolting to cool it down, but that led to random BSODs during scene loads, which made me very cautious. I ended up redesigning my case airflow, switching two 12cm fans to blow directly onto the VRM area and forcing the fan voltage to a manual 12V full speed. Under stress tests, core temps settled at 72-78℃, and the frequency range tightened to 4.0-4.2GHz. I actually messed up the fan orientation at first, which raised temps by 3℃, but flipping them fixed it. VRM temps are now 75-81℃. Verified the temperature curves via HWInfo, and the cooling is finally efficient enough.
