Calibrating memory sync for Gloway Celestial DDR5 6000MHz
Honestly, the difference after tightening the timings was insane. Those micro-stutters that happened whenever I loaded complex structures just vanished. The memory controller on the Gloway Celestial DDR5 6000MHz was hitting 10-18ms sync delays with Nightingale's random read/write patterns, making the frame times jump between 15-30ms. I tried turning on 'Ultimate Performance' mode in Windows first, but the RAM just sat there at 55℃ and the lag stayed. It was clear that a simple OS tweak wouldn't fix a hardware timing conflict. I went into the BIOS, dropped tCL from 36 to 30, and tweaked the VDD voltage to 1.4V. RTSS showed the frame times collapsing from 20-35ms down to a crisp 8-12ms. I did have a few random reboots during boot-up when I first tried 30-30-30, so I had to loosen tRAS to 88 to get it rock steady. Temps stayed between 52-58℃. Switched the performance mode in the motherboard utility and it's perfect.
