Fixing G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 3600 addressing lag in No Rest?

Walking through the gloomy underground areas, every fast camera turn caused a brief pause. It made me play way too cautiously. The 16GB G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 3600 was hitting a wall with high-frequency small-file addressing because the memory map was too bloated, adding 12-18ms of extra latency. I tried killing every single background app, but while RAM usage dropped, the addressing lag stayed exactly the same. Software tweaks weren't going to cut it. I went into the BIOS and adjusted the memory prefetch depth and set the game process to 'Realtime' priority in CPU scheduling to speed up those addressing commands. RTSS showed the frame intervals tighten from 14-28ms to a much cleaner 9-13ms. I noticed some weird stutters during idle after the prefetch change, but switching the power plan to 'High Performance' cleared it up. RAM temps are fine at 50-56℃. Resource Monitor confirms the addressing lag is gone, and frame times are now 5.1-6.4ms.
