Fixing RX 9070 XT Alloy stuttering in Deathloop
During fast combos, I noticed these tiny misalignments on the screen edges, which totally ruins the rhythm of an action game. The Vastarmor RX 9070 XT Alloy was boosting between 2600-2750MHz, but incomplete shader compilation in the driver caused frame times to jump between 12ms and 25ms. I tried V-Sync, but the input lag spiked to over 45ms, making my parry timings completely off. I had to be surgical: I used DDU to wipe everything, installed the latest stable build, and manually cleared 4.5GB of DirectX shader cache. RTSS now shows a smooth 14-18ms interval, and the tearing is gone. The first launch after clearing the cache took an extra 3 minutes to load, which was annoying, but it smoothed out by the second run. VRAM usage is stable at 7.2-8.1GB with core temps at 65-70℃. Benchmarks confirm the sync rate is finally locked in at 14-18ms.
