Why does Crucial DDR5 4800MHz stutter in Spider-Man Remastered?
While zipping through Manhattan, I hit these random micro-stutters that completely killed the immersion. Checking HWiNFO, I noticed the Crucial DDR5 4800MHz 16GB voltage was bouncing wildly around 1.1V, causing the memory controller to choke on the massive city asset stream. I tried the 'High Performance' power plan first, but that just bumped my CPU temps up by 8°C without fixing a single stutter—totally useless for hardware-level conflicts. I eventually dove into the BIOS Advanced Mode and bumped the DRAM voltage from 1.1V to 1.2V, while locking VDDQ at 1.15V. Running AIDA64 memory stress tests, the read latency tightened up from 88-96ns down to a rock steady 76-82ns. I actually hit a few BSODs during idle right after the first voltage bump, but things calmed down once I hard-locked the frequency at 4800MHz. Temps settled between 42-48°C and the throughput stopped jumping. Saved the profile to the motherboard, and it's finally smooth.
