How to fix voltage instability on Kingbank DDR4 3600?

The framerate was bouncing wildly between 144 FPS and 90 FPS, which is a total nightmare in a fast-paced action game. After digging into the logs, I found the Kingbank DDR4 3600 default voltage was dipping by 0.07V during heavy loads, causing the memory controller to choke on large texture swaps. My first instinct was to enable V-Sync in the driver panel, but that just added over 38ms of input lag—it felt like I was playing in mud. I went back into the BIOS, switched memory voltage to manual, and set a +0.05V offset while disabling C-States to kill any CPU wake-up lag. Checking RTSS, the frame time graph went from a jagged mess to a nearly flat line, hovering between 6.5-7.1ms. I did hit a BSOD on the first boot after applying the offset; I had to dial it back to 1.36V and crank up the fans to keep it cool. RAM temps stayed between 38-44℃ and VRMs were at 52-58℃. An hour of OCCT stress testing passed with zero crashes.
