How to fix texture loading lag on Corsair Vengeance DDR5?
Seeing a massive dino in the distance only for its textures to load in like chunky pixels is a total immersion killer in an open world. My logs showed the Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 6400MHz idling at 85-95ns latency, causing a massive bottleneck when the controller tried to push heavy texture data. I tried increasing the page file to 32GB, but that was a disaster—my FPS tanked from 80 to 62, which was incredibly frustrating. I went back into BIOS and squeezed the primary timings from 32-39-39-75 down to 30-36-36-72, while pushing the memory voltage from 1.35V to 1.40V. AIDA64 latency tests dropped from 92ns to a crisp 76-82ns, and the pop-in basically vanished. I actually crashed twice trying to be too aggressive with the timings until I backed tRAS off to 76. Temps sat between 48-54℃. Ran 6 passes of MemTest86 with zero errors, and it's stayed cool at 48-54℃.
