Fixing Crucial DDR4 2400MHz 8GB boot loops in MGS Delta
I was so hyped to finally play this, but the second the loading bar hit halfway, the screen went black and the PC rebooted. That rush of excitement turned into pure rage instantly. The default profile for my Crucial 2400MHz RAM was having a massive synchronization conflict with the new anti-cheat instructions, causing the memory controller to throw 3-7 checksum errors. I tried downclocking to 2133MHz in the BIOS, which stopped the crashes, but I lost about 10 FPS, and I wasn't about to trade performance for stability. I ended up using a flash tool to update the BIOS to the latest stable version and re-loaded an optimized timing profile. MemTest86 showed the latency drop from 92ns to 84ns, and the system finally stopped crashing. I actually struggled with the profile save path at first, and the settings didn't stick until I did a hard reboot. Now RAM temps are 42-48℃ and the CPU is around 60-68℃. The boot logs confirm the instruction set conflict is gone, and the heat is stable at 42-48℃.
