Why is my Galax H310M Warrior D4 stuttering in Nightingale?

When dashing through the world, I noticed these tiny, jarring skips in the visuals that are incredibly distracting in an open-world setting. The memory controller on the Galax H310M Warrior D4 was flipping between 1:1 and 1:2 dividers at 2666MHz, causing response latency to swing wildly between 72-95ns. I first tried switching to the High Performance power plan in Windows, but while the FPS stayed at 60, those micro-stutters were still there, which was honestly baffling. I eventually dove into the BIOS, manually tightened the primary timings, and bumped the DRAM voltage from 1.2V to 1.35V to keep the signal clean. Checking the RTSS frame time graph, the jagged lines smoothed out into a consistent 12-16ms range. It wasn't a smooth ride, though; my first attempt with aggressive timings led to an immediate BSOD, and I had to loosen tRAS to 38 before it would actually boot. Memory temps sat between 42-48℃ with voltage ripple within +/- 0.02V. AIDA64 confirmed latency dropped to 66-70ns, and the frame generation time finally locked in at 12-16ms.
