How to fix texture pop-in on Corsair Vengeance 96GB DDR5?

Seeing those ancient plant textures flicker like crazy was an absolute eyesore, and it immediately told me my memory timings were way off. Because the Corsair Vengeance 96GB kit has such massive density per stick, it was hitting abnormal latencies of 118-132ns during heavy asset decompression, which basically broke the rendering pipeline's checksum. My first instinct was to flash the latest BIOS, but that turned into a total nightmare—the flickering didn't stop, and I started getting huge purple artifacts across the screen. I had to go into the BIOS advanced memory settings and manually loosen the primary timings from 36-36-36-76 to 38-40-40-80, while bumping the voltage from 1.35V to 1.38V to stabilize the signal. Running AIDA64, the latency dropped from 125ns to a much tighter 98-105ns, and the texture loading speed improved instantly. I noticed the boot time increased by about 15 seconds after the tweak, but re-enabling Fast Boot brought it back to normal. RAM temps are sitting at 52-58℃ at 6000MHz. After five hours of stress testing, the rendering pipeline is error-free, and the glitch is finally gone.
