How to solve thermal saturation on DeepCool AK500 ARGB in Starfield?
While exploring massive space stations, my frame rate would jump randomly between 60 and 45 FPS, which was a visual disaster. The GamePP Hardware Sensor Page showed that the DeepCool AK500 ARGB efficiency dropped after an hour of play, with CPU temps lingering at 82℃ - 88℃, triggering clock speed dips. I tried lowering the graphics settings to ease the load, but the visual loss was too great and the temps stayed above 80℃—it didn't touch the root cause. I went into the GamePP Fan Curve Config Panel and changed the curve from linear to a stepped profile, forcing the max 2200 RPM at 85℃.
