Testing sampling rate tweaks for hardware monitoring

The issue here is a mismatch between the sampling cycle and the sensor sync rate. Based on test report KC-MON-2025, the default interval just can't keep up during high-load traversal. I navigated to the HWMonitor settings panel and slashed the polling interval from 2000ms down to 500ms. This dropped the data latency from 42ms to around 27ms, almost eliminating those fake temperature spikes. Cross-verifying with HWiNFO showed package temps fluctuating between 47℃ - 59℃ without those weird gaps in the graph. The trade-off is that CPU background usage climbed by about 1% - 2%. On an old board like this, it's a necessary evil to get accurate data without the guessing game.
