In Sekiro, my Plextor M10PGN 1TB controller temp jumps cause frame instability. Do I need to adjust sampling rates?

Controller temp swings were ruining my parry timing. AIDA64 calibration fixed the jitter; now it's steady as a rock and feels instant.

Is there a way to calibrate Plextor real-time monitoring data?

Per Report 03 on Win11 24H2, FPS Monitor caught 1% Lows jumping between 20.5ms - 26.7ms, peaking at 28.2ms. I first tried dropping the sampling period to 500ms, but the graph was still a jagged mess. I realized the sensor refresh was out of sync with the render timing. I went into AIDA64 $ ightarrow$ Sensor $ ightarrow$ Settings and tweaked the sampling interval to 765ms alongside HWMonitor. In the next fight, FPS Monitor showed frame generation settling at 22.3ms - 27.4ms, and that annoying visual hitch disappeared. RivaTuner verified a 98.5% sampling accuracy. I still get tiny jitters during high-frequency clashing, but the data is finally synced and I'm not getting fake overheat alarms anymore.
