During Monster Hunter Wilds team fights my ASUS TUF GAMING B550M-PLUS suffers serious lag from background apps piling up. Should I adjust priority and release cache to fix it?

When the big team fights hit in Monster Hunter Wilds my ASUS TUF GAMING B550M-PLUS starts lagging hard from all those background apps hogging resources. I opened Task Manager right away set the game exe to high priority and boom 2.8 gigs of RAM freed up instantly. Back in game everything felt way more responsive right away. Then I cleared the cache folder in the launcher restarted the client and frames jumped from 41 up to 57 staying steady with barely any dips. Switched power plan to high performance and boot time dropped under 3 seconds. Board VRM temps fell 4 degrees and the fans quieted down nicely. SSD read writes sped up 14 percent so loading scenes felt smooth no more hitches. Grabbed the latest graphics driver from the official site and compatibility improved crashes went to zero. Windows Performance Monitor showed the resource reallocation balanced out perfectly after saving the config.
