In TLOU Part II, my Zhitai TiPro9000 1TB cache fills up during transitions causing lag. Any fix?

Every time I entered a new survival zone, the loading bar would just hang at 80% for several seconds, which totally killed the immersion. Once the dynamic cache on the Zhitai TiPro9000 1TB hits its limit, write speeds tank from 7000MB/s to under 1500MB/s, and that volatility is exactly why the assets lag. I tried setting a fixed size for the page file, but that actually made I/O conflicts worse in the open world, and the frame drops actually increased—it was a pretty anxious bit of trial and error. I eventually went into the driver settings and pushed the NVMe queue depth from 1024 to 2048 and enabled the forced write cache flush. CrystalDiskMark showed 4K random reads jumping from 55-65MB/s to 78-85MB/s, and transition times dropped from 12 seconds to 5. I did hit a snag where the drive had a brief detection delay during standby, but switching to the High Performance power plan fixed it. Temps are sitting at 48-55℃ with the stock heatsink. Everything is running smooth now.
