Aiming to lower temps on your unlocked Intel 11th gen i9-11900K by adjusting the voltage during gaming sessions.
Aiming to lower temps on your unlocked Intel 11th gen i9-11900K by adjusting the voltage during gaming sessions.
I can guide you through this if someone can explain it clearly. You're using a CPU with two DDR4 sticks at 3600MHz and XMP 2.0 enabled on an MSI Z590-a Pro WiFi board. You're unsure whether Intel XTU or throttle stop works better and want to keep turbo boost active since it caused stuttering during GOW Ragnarok. I've adjusted BIOS settings—switched enhanced turbo off, set PL1 to 125W, PL2 to 251W, tau to 28—but it didn't fix the issue. You also tried max core clock at 4.8GHz, which led to crashes. You mentioned a faulty Lian Li Galahad AIO cooler but can't replace it; the fan still works and you're worried about overheating at 96°C with Nvidia Reflex enabled. Let me know if you need more help.
