How to stop Vastarmor RX 9070 XT Alloy from throttling in DL2?
Man, this card is a beast, but it runs like a space heater. My frame rate was plummeting from 110 down to 50 in a heartbeat. The Vastarmor Radeon RX 9070 XT Alloy hits a 250W power wall under extreme load, causing the clock to crash from 2.6GHz to 1.8GHz instantly. I tried maxing out every single graphics setting, and the PC just black-screened and rebooted—total fail, I actually laughed at my own stupidity. I went into the driver panel, capped the max power at 220W, and set a custom fan curve to hit 90% speed at 75℃. Monitoring with GPU-Z, the core clock finally stabilized around 2.3GHz without those violent dips. I actually tried capping it at 180W first, but the FPS drop was too severe and caused noticeable scene loading lag, so I bumped it back to 220W for the sweet spot. Temps are now between 72℃ and 78℃, and the fans are a bit loud. Exported the logs, and the fan speed is steady at 1400-1600 RPM.
