Solving VRAM fragmentation delays
Exploring the islands in Ghost of Tsushima DIRECTOR'S CUT was annoying due to 15s load times on my Zotac RTX 5070 Ti. I tried restarting the game, but the delay returned after 30 minutes, proving it was a temporary fix. I used GamePP Hardware Sensor to monitor VRAM usage and cleaned fragmentation via System Backup & Config Export. 3DMark benchmarks confirmed loading times dropped to 4s, with GPU temperature stable at 65-70℃ and fan speed at 1500-1600 RPM. This method effectively fixed the performance issue.
