Fixing the combat lag on Kingston Fury 8GB DDR3?
I couldn't take it anymore—this RAM was hitting a wall with Tekken 8's requirements, causing frame drops exactly when a hit should land. The bandwidth on the Kingston Fury 8GB DDR3 1866 was saturated at over 95% during high-res texture loads, causing frame times to jump between 25-45ms. I tried increasing the virtual memory to 32GB, but that was a total fail—it just spiked my disk writes and made the whole system sluggish. I eventually went into the BIOS and tightened the timings from 10-10-10-30 down to 9-9-9-28, while bumping the voltage to 1.65V. RTSS showed my minimums climb from 42 FPS to 55 FPS, and the input felt much more consistent. I did have a few random reboots when I first pushed for 9-9-9, but loosening tRCD to 10 found the sweet spot. RAM temps sat between 48-55℃. Exported the BIOS profile to back up the settings. Still, 8GB is a struggle for 2026 titles.
