Solving VRAM Fragmentation Issues
Exploring the island in Ghost of Tsushima DIRECTOR'S CUT was frustrating with my Zotac RTX 5070 Ti 16GB. Loading times stretched from 5s to 15s due to VRAM fragmentation. I tried restarting the game, which helped briefly, but the issue returned after 30 minutes. I then used GamePP Hardware Sensor to monitor VRAM usage and utilized the System Backup & Config Export tool to clean the fragmentation. 3DMark benchmarks confirmed loading times dropped to 4s, with GPU temperature stable at 65-70℃ and fan speed at 1500-1600 RPM. The game feels much more responsive now.
