Fixing Crucial DDR5 4800 memory issues in Cyberpunk 2077
In the high-density areas of Night City, I noticed my memory latency swinging between 82-95ns. No BSODs, but the unstable timings caused these annoying micro-stutters. I tried enabling Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling in Windows, but the FPS just hovered between 40-55 without any real improvement. I finally went into the BIOS, switched memory control to manual, and locked the primary timings at 22-22-22-52 for the 4800MHz frequency. In the monitoring panel, latency stabilized at 78-82ns, and frame time fluctuations shrank from 15.4-22.1ms to 11.2-13.8ms. My first attempt to pump the voltage for stability actually caused some local overheating. After two reboots and rolling back the voltage, I realized timing synchronization was the real key. This is entry-level RAM, but it's performing as expected now. Ran a full AIDA64 stress test to verify, and frame times are holding steady at 11.2-13.8ms.
