Fixing transition stutters in Days Gone on Onda A520-VH-W
Riding through the wasteland was ruined by these constant micro-hitches that just killed the atmosphere. AIDA64 showed my memory bandwidth was stuck at 21 GB/s because I'd put the RAM in the wrong slots, causing a massive I/O bottleneck when the CPU tried to load environment assets. I tried the 'High Performance' power plan first, but it did nothing for a physical bandwidth limit—just a frustrating lesson in checking your hardware. I shut everything down and moved the sticks to slots 2 and 4, then verified dual-channel was active in the BIOS. Bandwidth immediately shot up to 42-46 GB/s, and the transitions became smooth as silk. I had a moment of panic when the PC didn't post after the swap, but a quick clean of the pins with an eraser did the trick. Memory temps are 40-46℃ and the board is running fine. Benchmarks confirm the transfer rates are now on point, with clocks stable at 3.6-4.1GHz.
