Smooth Loop Transitions Fix
Sneaking around the island was ruined by 0.3s freezes every time I entered a new area. I tried changing the PCIe mode from Auto to Gen4 in the BIOS, but it did nothing for the scheduling issues. I then used GamePP NVMe Queue Depth Configuration to increase the depth from 32 to 256 and switched to the Ultimate Performance power plan. CrystalDiskMark showed 4K random reads hit 55-62 MB/s, and AIDA64 showed temps at 52-58℃ with my heatsink. Now it's seamless.
