Optimizing thread scheduling for Onda B760ITX-B4 in Manor Lords
Once my village turned into a proper town, the turn calculation jumped from 2 seconds to a miserable 15 seconds. It was driving me crazy. The power management on the Onda B760ITX-B4 was causing severe scheduling delays, with the CPU cores jumping wildly between 1.2GHz and 4.8GHz. I tried enabling 'High Performance' mode in Windows, but it only shaved off one second and sent my temps soaring to 90℃—a total waste of time. I went into the BIOS, completely killed the C-State power savings, and set the processor performance bias to maximum. Using RTSS, I saw the frame time variance shrink from a messy 22-45ms down to a tight 14-18ms, making turn transitions feel instant. The downside was that idle power draw jumped to 60W, and I had to rebuild my fan curves from scratch to keep things cool. Now the CPU sits at 72-81℃ and the VRMs are around 82-88℃. The input lag is gone, and the game finally feels responsive under my fingertips.
