How to optimize FCLK for Ryzen 7 9800X3D in FF7 Rebirth?

It's a joke that a top-tier X3D chip would drop frames in these scenes. While the 3D V-Cache is a beast, at extreme memory frequencies, the FCLK bus and memory controller had a 0.1% chance of desyncing, which tanked my minimums to 25 FPS. I tried pushing SoC voltage to 1.3V to force stability, but it didn't stop the drops and just gave me a Blue Screen after 20 minutes—the frustration was real. I finally gave up and dropped the FCLK from 2200MHz to 2000MHz in the BIOS and locked the memory timings. Frame time analysis showed my minimums climbing from 25 FPS to 62 FPS, and the game finally feels normal. I actually thought it didn't work at first, but after three restarts and a half-hour session, I confirmed it was fixed. CPU temps are holding at 62-68℃ with voltage at 1.1V. AIDA64 passed four cycles with zero errors, and fans are humming along at 1400-1600 RPM.
