Can adjusting AIDA64 sampling rates fix SSD thermal throttling?
I was watching FPSMonitor and the 1% lows were a jagged mess between 21.3ms - 27.5ms. Monitoring Report 03 on Windows 11 showed AIDA64 reporting controller temps swinging from 54℃ - 69℃. I tried dropping the sampling period to 500ms, but the UI just started lagging because of the refresh rate, which solved nothing. I then went into AIDA64 sensor settings and dialed the sampling interval exactly to 770ms while tracking the core voltage curve in HWMonitor. This suppressed the frame generation variance to 23.1ms - 28.2ms, and the input lag felt way lower. Just a heads up: this is mostly a data-sync optimization. The actual instantaneous heat is still there, and I can still feel the scorching air blasting out of my case after a long session.
