Thermalright PA120 SE Fan Tuning

Building a massive base caused my CPU temperatures to rocket from 55℃ to 92℃ in three seconds, triggering severe throttling that made the gameplay feel choppy. I tried setting the fans to full speed in the BIOS, but the noise was like a helicopter taking off, making it impossible to concentrate. I switched to the GamePP Fan Curve Configuration to establish a linear growth zone between 65-75℃ and forced 100% speed above 80℃. AIDA64 monitoring confirmed temperatures stabilized at 68-76℃, while HWiNFO64 showed fan speeds at 1200-1600 RPM and memory temps at 42-48℃ via GamePP.
