I'm getting read errors and stuttering when loading high-poly models in Stellar Blade with my Kioxia Exceria Plus G4 1TB, how do I handle this?

This is unbelievable—I bought a PCIe 5.0 drive and I'm actually losing assets during model loads. The quality control is just a joke. On some motherboards, the Kioxia Exceria Plus G4 1TB has a 0.1-0.3% link synchronization error rate when set to 'Auto' protocol, leading to instant freezes or flickering models. I tried lowering the texture quality in-game, but that just made the game look blurry while the stuttering remained—a total waste of time that left me pretty pissed off. I eventually went into the BIOS and forced the PCIe slot from 'Auto' to 'Gen5' and updated to the latest NVMe drivers. AIDA64 storage tests now show sequential reads stable at 10000-11500MB/s with zero read errors. I did have two boot-up recognition delays after forcing Gen5, but clearing the CMOS and resetting the BIOS finally stabilized it. Temps are between 48-62℃, and the heatsink is warm to the touch. The Kioxia diagnostic tool now confirms zero errors, and the game finally runs as intended.
