Why is Kingdom Come Deliverance II stuttering on Corsair LPX?
Riding through those crowded streets was a nightmare; the game would just hitch for a fraction of a second, making the controls feel sluggish and disconnected. I found that while the Corsair LPX is generally solid, enabling XMP at 3200MHz caused the memory controller voltage to bounce wildly between 1.2V and 1.35V, triggering occasional parity errors. I tried switching my Windows power plan to High Performance, but that was a joke—the average FPS went up slightly, but the stutters stayed. I eventually dove into the BIOS Advanced Voltage settings and manually locked the VDDQ at 1.36V while nudging the SoC voltage to 1.15V. In AIDA64 stress tests, the error curve that used to show two crashes every 20 minutes went completely flat, and my frame times tightened from a messy 14-26ms down to a steady 9-15ms. I actually tried pushing it to 3600MHz at first, but that just gave me an immediate BSOD until I backed off to 3200MHz and loosened the tRAS timings. Now, temps sit around 46-52℃ for the RAM and 60-66℃ for the VRMs. Everything is rock steady now with frame times locked at 9-15ms.
