Fixing sync issues with Kingston HyperX Savage memory?
When panning the camera quickly, I saw these jagged horizontal breaks across the screen that made precise commands nearly impossible. The Kingston HyperX Savage memory was having slight clock drift when handling high-frequency signals, causing the refresh rate to wobble between 137Hz - 144Hz. I tried forcing 'Disable Fullscreen Optimizations' in Windows, but that actually made the tearing worse and added weird flickering. I eventually went into the BIOS, disabled the integrated graphics output, and forced the PCIe link to its maximum power state. RTSS showed frame times tightening from a shaky 8-16ms to a stable 7.2ms - 7.6ms. I initially tried V-Sync, but the input lag was unbearable until I switched to Fast Sync. The motherboard stayed cool at 42°C - 47°C with minimal fan noise. After side-by-side tests, the tearing is completely gone, and the RAM is idling at 45°C - 51°C.
