Tuning Jonsbo CR-1400 ARGB for Black Myth: Wukong
Whenever I hit a massive combat scene, my FPS would dive from 70 down to 30 without warning, and the inconsistency was honestly stressing me out. The CR-1400 is a compact cooler, and it's just not built for a 150W load, which left my cores bouncing between 92-97℃. I tried lowering the render resolution, but it only gained me 10 FPS and made the game look like a blurry mess—I was beyond frustrated. I went into the BIOS, switched the fan mode from Auto to Manual PWM, and cranked the speed to 2200 RPM for anything over 60℃. Running AIDA64 again, the peak temp dropped from 97℃ to about 82-86℃, and the clock fluctuations smoothed out. The fans actually caused the case to vibrate and rattle at first, but adding a rubber gasket killed the noise. Now it hovers around 80-85℃, which is barely safe but usable. The input lag is gone, and the controls finally feel snappy again.
