Why is my GTA5 RP performance so unstable?

To nail this down, I followed the GTA-MEM-2026 protocol on Win11 24H2. Five rounds of 3DMark showed frame times oscillating violently between 11ms and 28ms, which is a nightmare in crowded RP server hubs. I went into BIOS -> Advanced Memory Configuration, dialed the XMP profile down from 6000MHz to 5800MHz, and bumped the voltage by 0.02V. CPU-Z confirmed latency stabilized from 72ns to around 68ns, with the variance shrinking to just 2ns. The benchmark curve finally flattened out, and my ranking jumped. Warning: this tweak depends heavily on your RAM die (Samsung vs Hynix), and some kits might not POST, so back up your BIOS settings first.
