How to stop the B360 Core from throttling in Like a Dragon?
The battle scenes in this game are absolute hardware killers; my CPU was basically trying to melt itself, which is just insane. Even with the Cooler Master B360 Core AIO, heat was soaking into the radiator during all-core loads, with temps lingering between 85-92°C and clocks jumping between 4.5GHz and 5.0GHz. I tried cranking up the case fans, but it just sounded like a jet engine and actually raised temps by 1°C—a total fail. I ended up redesigning the fan sync, linking the CPU fans with the case exhaust via the motherboard to rip the heat out instantly. During stress tests, core temps stabilized at 78-82°C, and frame times hit that sweet 16.6ms mark. I realized early on that a water tube was partially blocking the RAM airflow, so I shifted the radiator by 5mm to clear the path. CPU power is holding steady at 180W. I exported the logs from my monitoring software, and fan speeds are now rock steady at 1400-1600 RPM.
