PCIe Gen3 Lock: Galax B360M
I was frustrated by 1200MB/s read speeds causing lag in Star Wars Outlaws. Swapping M.2 slots made recognition unstable. I used the GamePP Hardware Sensor Page to lock the PCIe link to Gen3 x4. CrystalDiskMark confirmed speeds hit 3200-3500MB/s and map switching dropped to 8s. The open world now loads instantly, restoring the smooth exploration I expected.
