How to stop texture flickering with Kingbank Yin Jue 8GB DDR4 3600?

The detailed foliage textures suddenly started flashing with huge color blocks, and that visual glitching made it obvious my memory stability was way off. With the Kingbank Yin Jue 8GB DDR4 3600 running in 'Extreme Mode,' the memory controller was hitting abnormal latencies of 112ns - 135ns when handling complex assets. My first instinct was to drop texture quality to Medium, but while the flickering slowed down, the loss in detail was unacceptable—I wasn't about to compromise the visuals. I headed into the BIOS and bumped the memory voltage from 1.35V to 1.38V, then tightened the primary timings from 18-22-22-42 to 18-20-20-40. In AIDA64 stress tests, read speeds jumped from 42GB/s to 48-52GB/s, and the flickering vanished completely. I actually pushed the timings to 16-18-18 at first, but the system BSOD'd twice before I loosened tRAS to 42 to get back into Windows. Memory temps settled at 45℃ - 51℃, while the VRM temps hit 62℃ - 68℃. After four full cycles of MemTest86, I can confirm zero errors and temps holding at 45℃ - 51℃.
