Dealing with Jonsbo CR-1400 ARGB thermal pressure in MH Wilds?
The screen tearing became a nightmare after about two hours of hunting. Checking my logs, the CPU was hitting a wall at 89-93℃, forcing the frequency down to a pathetic 2.3-2.7GHz. I tried just lowering the room temperature, but that was like bringing a knife to a gunfight against these loads. I had to go deep into the settings and cap the power limit between 115-120W while locking the Jonsbo fan at 1500-1700 RPM. My sensors finally showed temps dropping back to 76-81℃, and those jagged frame times of 14.4-24.1ms smoothed out to 10.2-12.5ms. I actually bricked my stability at first by trying a low voltage offset, which led to three blue screens before I found the sweet spot. It still hitches slightly during some complex terrain loads, but the overall fluidity is back. OCCT confirmed no more thermal throttling, with memory staying around 58-63℃.
