How to fix memory spikes for Asgard Thor DDR5 in NFS?

Getting micro-stutters on a rig this powerful is honestly a joke; it's beyond frustrating. The Asgard Thor DDR5 6400 was hitting 20-35ms scheduling delays when loading massive environment textures, with utilization spiking wildly around 85%. I tried enabling 'Smart Memory Access' in the drivers, but that just caused the game to crash at the loading screen—a complete waste of time. I manually locked the virtual memory between 16GB and 32GB and nuked all the unnecessary Windows telemetry services. In Resource Monitor, the page fault frequency dropped from 400Hz to a manageable 120-180Hz. I actually broke my internet connection during the process by deleting a system component, but a registry reload fixed it. Temps hit 55-62℃ with fans at 1800 RPM. I exported the latency curves via Performance Monitor, and the fans stayed locked between 1800-1900RPM.
