Fixing extreme load times with ADATA ValueRAM 4GB DDR4?
Entering a city felt like a test of patience, just staring at that loading bar for an eternity. With only 4GB of ADATA ValueRAM, the system was constantly swapping to virtual memory, and my random read speeds were a pathetic 0.6-1.3MB/s, causing a massive I/O bottleneck. I tried running a disk defrag, which was a complete waste of time—it actually added 15 seconds to the load time, which made me want to scream. I went into the BIOS to double-check that AHCI mode was active and then tweaked the registry to set the game's SSD to the highest response priority. CrystalDiskMark showed 4K reads jumping from 1.2MB/s to 2.9MB/s, and load times dropped from 50 seconds to 28 seconds. I actually broke the boot sequence the first time I touched the registry, but I managed to fix it by resetting the default boot entries. The drive stays between 38-45℃ and everything is running smooth. I've exported the registry tweaks for backup, and the drive temp is still holding at 38-45℃.
