How to fix i5-13490F core scheduling in Remnant 2?
When a bunch of particle effects explode on screen, the image starts tearing slightly. I got excited to fix this because I knew it was a scheduling bottleneck. The i5-13490F struggles with Remnant 2's complex physics, with threads bouncing between P-Cores, creating 15ms - 30ms of instant latency. I first tried the High Performance power plan in Windows, which helped a bit, but the E-Core latency was still there—just a band-aid solution that left me frustrated. I went into the BIOS Advanced Voltage settings, changed the Load-Line Calibration from Auto to Manual, and nudged the VCCSA voltage to 1.25V. In RTSS, the frame time jitter dropped from a wild 18ms - 35ms to a steady 13ms - 16ms. I actually had a random reboot when I first touched the LL parameters, but it stabilized after I changed the voltage offset from +0.02V to +0.01V. CPU temps are 68℃ - 75℃ at 4.8GHz. I saved the profile in BIOS, and the scheduling mode is finally sorted.
