Why are textures popping in Dead Space Remake on Intel 660P?

In those oppressive corridors, scene details loaded in obvious layers, and distant objects took seconds to clear. I first tried disabling all unnecessary background services, but loading only improved by 2 seconds—I was still very cautious. I then entered GamePP NVMe Queue Depth Configuration and bumped the queue depth from 128 to 256. It felt seamless! Random read performance increased by 15% per CrystalDiskMark, temps stayed at 42-52℃ per HWMonitor, and 4K random reads hit 50-70MB/s via CrystalDiskMark.
