Optimizing the visual pipeline for Kingston memory
This is a classic visual pipeline conflict. When memory bandwidth fluctuates between 14GB - 19GB, setting the AMD Adrenalin sharpening between 65% - 82% makes the aliasing look brutal. I tried locking it at 75%, but the edges were still too harsh. I changed tactics: I used GPU-Z to lock the VRAM load curve and ran MSI Kombustor to stress the system, then dialed the sharpening back to a range of 71% - 78% in custom mode. Suddenly, the fur looked natural instead of like cheap plastic. Note that with Frame Generation on, VRAM temps hover between 68℃ - 71℃, which causes slight color shifting in a few scenes. However, using EVGA Precision for color calibration cleared the image up. My eyes finally stopped straining.
