Can locking core clocks fix Hitman 3 lag on Onda H610M?
Man, running Hitman 3 on this board is like walking a tightrope. Whenever the crowd gets thick, my FPS plummets from 60 to 25, and the game looks like a PowerPoint presentation. The Onda H610M's power delivery just can't handle an i5 boosting all cores, with voltage swinging wildly between 1.1V and 1.25V, triggering protective throttling. I tried dropping every single graphics setting to low, but I only gained about 3 FPS—total waste of time and honestly kind of hilarious. I finally went into the BIOS, navigated to Advanced CPU Settings, locked the CPU core frequency at a steady 3.8GHz, and slapped two tiny heatsinks on the VRM chokes. HWInfo shows the Vcore is now stable around 1.2V without those nasty spikes. I tried locking it at 4.2GHz at first, but it froze on the loading screen; dropping it by 400MHz finally did the trick. CPU temps are 75-82℃ with fans at 2100 RPM. I exported the voltage curves from the logs to confirm the stability, and the data looks clean.
