Does the Jonsbo CR-1400E struggle with Resident Evil Village 4K?

Pushing the resolution to 4K turned my CPU into a furnace; temps hit the 95℃ redline within five minutes, and my clocks cratered from 4.8GHz to 2.2GHz, causing massive stutters. The Jonsbo CR-1400E just doesn't have the fin surface area for this kind of compute density, creating a massive thermal bottleneck. I tried leaving the case side panel open, which only dropped temps by 4℃ but let dust build up like crazy—a total desperation move that didn't help. I eventually dove into the BIOS and swapped the fan profile from Silent to Aggressive, forcing 100% speed at 70℃, and swapped the stock paste for a high-end thermal compound. During stress tests, the peak temp was clamped at 78-84℃, and the clock speeds stopped diving. There was a piercing resonance noise around 50Hz at first, but dropping the start speed to 800 RPM smoothed it out. Core temps now sit at 62-68℃. The in-game performance overlay shows no more throttling, and the mouse response feels way more immediate.
