Why is my Intel 760P 2TB so slow in Ghost of Yotei?
It's like an unwritten rule that SSDs slow down once they're full, and it's honestly pathetic. The QLC NAND in the Intel 760P 2TB saw read speeds tank from 3000MB/s to 1100MB/s, pushing boot times from 15s to a miserable 40s. I tried some 'SSD booster' software, but it just ate CPU cycles without doing anything—complete garbage. I manually triggered a full-drive TRIM and nuked about 200GB of temp cache files. Benchmark tests showed sequential reads bouncing back to 2800-3100MB/s, and the game boots normally again. The system hung for a few seconds right after the TRIM, but a reboot cleared it up. Drive temps are chill at 38-45℃. The response time is finally snappy, though I'll never trust QLC drives for main installs again.
