Bandwidth performance evaluation of NZXT Kraken Z73 in UHD rendering
Benchmarking the NZXT Kraken Z73 during massive Cities Skylines II loads often exposes bandwidth peaks that cause the game to grind to a halt. My first try with 3DMark stress tests was a mess due to browser bloat. I nuked all social tabs and disabled Windows Search indexing. Using 3DMark [Report #KZ73-B] on v560 Driver, available memory bounced back to a comfortable 2.2GB - 2.7GB zone, while frame rates smoothed out into a steady 53fps - 58fps flow. To be real, cherry blossom particle effects still induce slight hitching, but the stability is now lab-grade. Seeing the bandwidth bottleneck flattened was a huge win; the city simulation feels rock steady, a pure zen experience.
