How to stabilize Colorful BATTLE-AX B760M-WHITE for Cyberpunk 2077?
The power delivery on this board is basically walking a tightrope. Under load, the voltage bounces around like an EKG monitor, which is just ridiculous. I was seeing my FPS jump between 80 and 30, making the game feel like a PowerPoint presentation. I tried locking the CPU at 3.6GHz, but then the loading screens took forever—I felt like a total noob for trying that. I eventually went into the BIOS and set the Load-Line Calibration (LLC) to Level 2 and moved the fan trigger threshold from 55℃ down to 45℃. HWInfo shows the core frequency is now steady at 4.0-4.2GHz without those cliff-like drops. I did have two random restarts during idle after the first voltage tweak, but fine-tuning the Vcore to 1.20V settled everything down. The VRMs are still running hot at 84-90℃, and the fans are screaming at 2100 RPM. I exported the full voltage-frequency map to make sure I don't lose these settings. Fan speeds are now locked at 2100-2200RPM, which is loud but necessary.
