Fixing clock speed jumps on Manli Snow Fox RTX 5070 OC in LoL?
During crucial team fights, I'd get these tiny hitches that are incredibly obvious on a 240Hz monitor. Monitoring showed the Manli Snow Fox RTX 5070 OC was bouncing between 300MHz and 2100MHz during low-load moments, causing frame times to wobble between 4-15ms. I tried 'Prefer Maximum Performance' in the Nvidia panel, but while the temp went up 5℃, the stuttering didn't budge—pretty useless against low-level clock scheduling. I ended up using a third-party tool to manually lock the core clock at 1800MHz and set a more aggressive fan curve. In RivaTuner, the frame time variance finally tightened to 4-7ms. I even tried lowering the resolution, which just made the game look worse without fixing the lag. Now, the core stays between 55-62℃. It's a bit of a workaround, but it's the only way to get a consistent feel.
