Solving I/O Response Latency
Whenever I entered a bustling town, the game would freeze for a couple of seconds, killing the momentum of the experience. I tried updating the motherboard chipset drivers, but the loading times barely changed, making me very cautious. I used GamePP NVMe Queue Depth Configuration to increase depth from 64 to 128. CrystalDiskMark showed random reads improved to 58MB/s, and HWiNFO confirmed temps stable at 40-48℃. The freezes are gone.
