Is the Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000 kit unstable in TLOU 1?

My framerate was tanking from 80 FPS down to 30 without warning, which is a complete nightmare during stealth combat. Digging through the logs, this 48GBx2 kit was hitting 12-18ms response delays during specific memory mapping tasks in the PC port. I tried dropping textures to Medium, but the game looked like mud and I only gained 10 FPS—totally pointless. I ended up flashing the BIOS to the latest version and enabled the memory compatibility enhancement, manually locking the voltage at 1.38V instead of 1.35V. AIDA64 showed latency dropping from 90ns to 72-78ns, and the drops vanished. The first BIOS update actually broke my XMP profile, so I had to manually punch in the timings to get it back. RAM temps are hovering between 48-55℃ and VRMs are at 60-65℃. Ran 6 passes of MemTest86 with zero errors, though the boot time is slightly longer now.
