Is the ASUS TUF GAMING B760M-PLUS D4 causing lag in Code: Jie?
During high-speed action sequences, I noticed my frame rate swinging wildly between 60 and 85 FPS, which is absolutely fatal in a competitive setting. The P-cores and E-cores on the ASUS TUF GAMING B760M-PLUS D4 were struggling with the game's AI calculations, resulting in a 15-25ms scheduling delay that blocked instruction execution. I cautiously tried lowering the physics precision in-game; while the FPS went up, the environment interactions felt stiff and the stutters remained, proving the bottleneck was CPU scheduling. I then went into the BIOS, disabled C-State deep sleep, and forced the game's CPU affinity to the P-core range only. The frame time analyzer showed the variance shrink from 18-35ms down to 11-15ms. I did run into an issue where my browser would occasionally freeze after locking the cores, but changing the priority to 'High' instead of 'Realtime' sorted it out. Core temps are stable at 62-68℃. The system performance monitor now confirms scheduling is healthy.
