How to stop Crucial memory scheduling from killing PUBG FPS?
I spent way too long fighting this. Running Crucial DDR4 2666MHz 8GB, and during high-intensity final circles, the frequency was bouncing between 2500-2700MHz. I could actually feel the heat radiating off the heatspreaders. At first, I tried using a game performance booster to optimize background processes, but it only reclaimed about 1.9-2.5GB of cache, and those jagged frame-time spikes stayed stubborn. It was incredibly frustrating. I then dove into HWiNFO and noticed temp swings between 54-60℃ were triggering timing delays, proving software tweaks alone couldn't fix hardware thermal throttling. I had to go into Task Manager, force the process priority, and run a benchmark to actually flatten the resource curve. Even then, it wasn't perfect; I had to layer on a custom Power Plan tweak to kill the last of the stutters. This trial-and-error loop was a nightmare, but it proves that stabilizing the frame pool requires a multi-dimensional approach. After validating with a benchmark, the frame delivery is finally smooth, though it took a lot of patience to get here.
