Why is my Kingbank Yin Jue DDR4 3600 loading so slowly in Metaphor?
Seeing the loading bar fly by and scenes pop open instantly was such a rush. Before this, my Kingbank Yin Jue DDR4 3600 was running at a default 2133 MHz, which throttled the bandwidth and made scene loads take up to 30 seconds. I tried clearing system temp files first, which only shaved off about 1 second—a complete waste of time that just left me annoyed. I finally went into the BIOS, enabled the XMP 2.0 profile, and locked the memory voltage at 1.35 V. In real-world tests, the RAM stayed rock steady at 3600 MHz, and loading times dropped from 30 seconds to just 11 seconds. I did notice some occasional boot failures after enabling XMP, but loosening the timings from 18-22-22 to 18-24-24 solved it completely. Memory temps are sitting comfortably at 38-45℃. I switched the motherboard profile to 'High Performance', and the difference is night and day.
