Can driver cache fixes stop crashes on Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6400?

Trying to run the Remake engine on this frequency felt like a stress test for my patience—every time I loaded a map, it was a stutter-fest. The 6400MHz kit was hitting 95% utilization during heavy shadow rendering, leaving the system stuck in I/O wait for 0.6 to 1.2 seconds. I tried closing every single background app, but aside from not being able to use Discord, the crash rate didn't budge, which was honestly pathetic. I eventually went into the NVIDIA Control Panel, forced the shader cache size to 10GB, and locked my virtual memory to a fixed 32GB range. RivaTuner showed frame times converging from a chaotic 22-110ms to a manageable 16-30ms. I did experience some slow boot times after locking the page file, which I fixed by moving the file to my fastest NVMe partition. Temps are 55-61℃ for RAM and 60-66℃ for the VRMs. I exported the latency logs to verify, and the cache scheduling is finally dialed in.
