During intense teamfights in the new Tomb Raider, my Noctua NH-D15 G2 seems to suffer from read/write latency, making the rendering stutter heavily. Should I enable AI sharpening to reshape the visual pipeline?

Massive particle bursts often jam the command queue, causing micro-delays in GPU scheduling. On Win11 24H2 with Driver 561.0, Report Img-Render-C2 showed VRAM temps flickering between 70°C - 77°C. My first attempt at AI sharpening left ugly, jagged white edges on assets. I had to dive into graphics settings, manually dropping the sharpening intensity to 40% while tweaking global contrast via Director Mode. GPU-Z later confirmed VRAM stability at 70°C - 77°C, with frame latency completely flatlined, delivering a visual experience that felt phenomenally fluid and crisp. However, be warned: this AI reconstruction is a VRAM monster; on cards with only 8GB of VRAM, you will still encounter occasional texture popping when pushing ultra settings.
