Can adjusting NVMe queue depth fix ADATA DDR4 2666 lag in Elden Ring?
Running a modern masterpiece on this kit was basically a test of my patience. Every time I entered a new zone, the game would turn into a slideshow for about 0.4 seconds; the GamePP sensor page showed NVMe queue depths sitting at a pathetic 3 - 6, meaning requests were just piling up. I tried moving the game to a SATA SSD, but that just doubled the load times—a complete joke of an 'optimization.' I eventually went into the GamePP NVMe Queue Depth Config, cranked the depth from 32 up to 128, and enabled the forced write cache flush. CrystalDiskMark showed 4K random reads jump from 32MB/s to 55MB/s - 62MB/s, and the freezes finally died.
