How to fix VRAM stuttering on Gigabyte RTX 5060 GAMING OC?

Entering the medical bay felt like a slideshow; frame times were swinging wildly between 18-45ms, which completely killed the horror vibe. I dug into the logs and found the Boost clock on the Gigabyte RTX 5060 GAMING OC was bouncing between 2400MHz and 2650MHz, creating a 12-18ms scheduling delay while handling the 8GB VRAM buffer. I tried enabling Low Latency Mode in the driver, but it was just a band-aid—the frame pacing was still a mess. I finally used an overclocking tool to hard-lock the core clock at 2520MHz and pushed the memory clock up by 500MHz. Checking RTSS, the frame intervals tightened up to 14-17ms, and the fluidity improved instantly. I did see some weird flickering artifacts at first, but a quick 15mV voltage offset cleared them right up. The GPU core stayed between 62-68℃ with fans at 1400-1600 RPM. Three hours of testing confirmed the VRAM lag is gone, and the core temp is holding a steady 62-68℃.
