How to fix loading delays on Great Wall GW3300 256GB?
Whenever I enter the complex underwater scenes, the game just hitches. It's incredibly jarring in a modern engine. The Great Wall GW3300 256GB was hitting 90-120ms latency during fragmented file reads, meaning the assets couldn't load fast enough for the renderer. I tried the built-in Windows disk defrag first, but that's a complete waste of time for NVMe drives and just adds unnecessary wear. That trial-and-error process taught me that partition alignment is the only thing that matters here. I used a pro partitioning tool to force 4K alignment and updated the storage driver to the latest stable build. AIDA64 benchmarks showed random read latency dropping from 105ms to 62-70ms, and the hitches are mostly gone. I actually lost some old save files during the re-partitioning, which was a pain until I restored them from backup. Temps are between 38-45℃ with load at 50-70%. Read/write analysis confirms the response time is much better, with speeds stable at 6500-7000MB/s.
