Zhitai TiPro9000 causing frame drops in F1 25?
When you're hitting 300km/h on the track, the adrenaline is insane, but a micro-stutter can ruin everything. I found that once the SLC cache on the Zhitai TiPro9000 1TB fills up, the random read speeds plummet from 7000MB/s to a measly 1200-1500MB/s, causing those annoying hitches during scene loads. I started by disabling unnecessary disk indexing in Windows, but that only saved me about a second of boot time and did nothing for the in-game stutters—a total waste of effort. I eventually installed the latest NVMe drivers and enabled the forced write cache flush policy in the Windows performance options. Monitoring with RivaTuner showed my frame times finally flattening out between 12-16ms. One weird thing happened: after changing the write strategy, the drive had a slight detection delay during idle, which I only fixed by switching my power plan from Balanced to High Performance. The SSD temp stays around 52-58℃ and the RAM is at 48-54℃. Everything feels way more fluid now.
