How to fix screen tearing in Control 2 with Kingbank Yin Jue 8GB?
Watching those surreal buildings collapse was an absolute trip, but the technical side was a mess. While the Kingbank Yin Jue has a high clock, 8GB is a bottleneck for 4K texture streams; I saw the PCIe bus bandwidth swinging between 10-12GB/s, causing a sync offset of 15-25ms. I tried forcing V-Sync to kill the tearing, but the input lag spiked to over 60ms—it felt like I was playing in a swamp. I ended up using PowerShell to enable Windows Memory Compression and manually expanded the page file to 24GB. RivaTuner showed frame times dropping from 25-42ms to a snappy 16-22ms, and the tearing vanished. The only downside was that my boot time increased by about 10 seconds after enabling compression, which I partially fixed by trimming startup items. RAM temps stayed cool at 38-44℃. The switch in memory strategy finally let me enjoy the high-fidelity assets without the visual glitches.
