DeepCool AK500 White is hitting thermal saturation in Returnal and killing my clocks. Can I fix this with process priority?

Trying to cool a top-tier CPU with this 'Ice Cube' is like trying to put out a forest fire with a squirt gun—completely ridiculous. After two hours of gameplay, core temps crept up to 92-96℃, and my clock speed crashed from 4.8GHz to 3.2GHz, turning the game into a literal slideshow. I tried limiting the maximum processor state to 99% in Windows, but I lost 30 FPS instantly. I actually laughed at how bad that 'fix' was. Instead, I overhauled my case airflow, slapping a high-pressure 12cm fan directly onto the fins and setting the curve to hit 100% at 75℃. HWInfo confirmed temps dropped to 72-78℃, and the performance was finally unlocked. The noise increased by about 8dB, which was annoying until I lowered the RPMs below 60℃. Even at 90% CPU load, the clocks stay high now. I exported the telemetry and confirmed the fan speed is stable between 1400-1600RPM, though the AK500 is clearly outclassed here.
