Why is Minecraft RTX so choppy on my Soyo SY-Yanlong H410M?
I finally found the culprit! My RAM was running at a pathetic 2133MHz base frequency—a total waste of hardware. This bottleneck caused 12-18ms of instruction latency when the CPU handled ray-traced geometry, making block loading feel sluggish. I tried the 'Ultimate Performance' power plan in Windows, but that only gave me a measly 4 FPS boost. I rebooted, hit the BIOS, and loaded the XMP profile to jump to 2666MHz. Checking CPU-Z, the frequency snapped into place, and my minimums jumped from 32 FPS to 58 FPS. The difference in smoothness is insane. I did have a scare where the system wouldn't POST after enabling XMP, but a quick reseat of the sticks and cleaning the gold contacts fixed it. RAM temps are now 40-46℃ at 1.35V. In-game monitors show the frame generation is finally flat, with temps staying between 42-48℃. Just make sure your sticks are seated properly.
