How to fix memory errors on the MSI MPG Z890 EDGE in Naraka?
The combat in Naraka looks insane with 8000MHz RAM, but the random crashes were absolutely infuriating. The memory controller on the MSI MPG Z890 EDGE was struggling with heavy physics calculations, and because the XMP profile was too aggressive, the voltage was bouncing between 1.1-1.3V. I first tried the 'Extreme Performance' mode in BIOS, but my RAM temps spiked to 68℃ and the system just rebooted—I was shocked at how unstable that preset was. I manually loosened the primary timings from 36-36-36-76 to 38-38-38-80 and locked the SOC voltage at 1.28V. This dropped my crash rate from once an hour to zero. I tried a BIOS update before this, but it just added 10 seconds to my boot time and did nothing for stability. Now RAM temps stay between 55-62℃. I switched the memory mode to 'Stability Priority' in the control panel, and temps are now a cool 52-58℃.
