How to stop temperature fluctuations with PCCooler RT500?

Moving through the jungle at 4K, I noticed this subtle 'twitching' in the image—it's a tiny detail, but it makes the experience feel off. HWInfo showed the RT500 TC was struggling with peak loads, with core temps jumping violently between 85℃ and 92℃, causing the CPU to throttle in short bursts. I tried killing background apps, but software optimization is a joke when you're fighting physics. I switched my case to a positive pressure airflow setup and cranked the cooler's max fan speed to 2200 RPM. In real-time monitoring, the temps leveled out between 78-84℃, and the micro-stutters vanished. The high-pitched whine from the fans was annoying at first, so I dialed back the speed to 70% for anything under 80℃. Now the CPU stays at 76-82℃ and fans are at 1400-1700 RPM. It's a fair trade-off for a smooth image.
