How to solve Fanxiang S910Max read issues in Shadow of the Erdtree?
Every time I step into the Realm of Shadow, there's a noticeable hitch that happens constantly while fast traveling. The Fanxiang S910Max's PCIe 5.0 interface hits 72℃ - 78℃ under heavy load, triggering a slight throttle that makes the read speeds fluctuate. I tried disabling all power-saving options in the BIOS, but that only dropped the temp by 2℃ and didn't stop the stutters. I eventually changed the NVMe driver power management to 'Maximum Performance' and tweaked the motherboard's PCIe slot voltage. RivaTuner showed my frame times tightening from a messy 11ms - 25ms down to 8ms - 13ms. I actually pushed the voltage too far at first and the drive hit 82℃, so I had to reseat the heatsink and improve my case airflow to bring it back down. Now it stays around 62℃ - 68℃. 3DMark storage tests passed, and RAM is steady at 58℃ - 63℃.
