How do I fix resource scheduling for Crucial DDR4 3200MHz 16GB?
While tracking large monsters, I hit these millisecond-long freezes that are absolutely lethal during precision dodges. On my Crucial DDR4 3200MHz 16GB kit, the default timings were a nightmare for massive environment data, with memory controller response latency swinging wildly between 82,0 - 95,0 ns, causing frame times to jump from 12,0 ms to 38,0 ms. I initially tried enabling 'Ultimate Performance' mode in Windows, but that was a total waste of time; it didn't fix the stutters and actually pushed my RAM temps up to 62,0 C. I eventually dove into the BIOS and manually tightened the primary timings to 16-18-18-36 and bumped the DRAM voltage from 1,2V to 1,35V. Checking HWiNFO, the latency finally converged to a stable 68,0 - 74,0 ns, and the game felt buttery smooth. I did have a scare where the system randomly rebooted when I first tried to push tRFC too low, but once I backed it off to 560 cycles, it locked in. RAM temps settled around 48,0 - 54,0 C. After a full stress test, the read/write curves are flat and the settings are saved.
