Fixing Horizon Zero Dawn Stutter Issues
Summoning units in combat caused maddening stutters, breaking the flow completely. I tried adjusting virtual memory, but it worsened the disk conflicts and dropped frames further. I used GamePP NVMe Queue Depth Configuration to raise depth to 2048 and enabled forced write cache flush. CrystalDiskMark showed 4K random reads jumping from 45-52MB/s to 68-75MB/s. Loading times dropped from 12s to 5s, and HWiNFO kept drive temps at 42-55℃. This change exported a perfectly smooth combat experience.
