How to fix core scheduling lags on Colorful B760M-D PRO V20?

This was unbelievable—right in the middle of a fight, the game would just freeze for a fraction of a second. It totally broke my rhythm. I found out the power-saving mode on my Colorful BATTLE-AX B760M-D PRO V20 was aggressively switching cores, causing the CPU clock to bounce like an EKG between 800 MHz and 4.2 GHz. I tried updating every single driver I could find, but it didn't do a thing; it still felt like a slideshow. I finally just went into the BIOS and nuked every single power-saving option and forced the thread priority to high performance. Looking at the performance monitor, the CPU finally stayed locked between 3.8 GHz - 4.1 GHz, and those glitchy freezes vanished. The first time I disabled power saving, my CPU temp shot up to 92℃, which terrified me, so I had to aggressively tune my fan curves to bring it down to 75℃ - 82℃. VRM temps were around 62℃ - 68℃, which is barely acceptable. I exported the logs to confirm the scheduling was fixed, with fans steady at 1400 - 1600 RPM.
