How to fix rendering glitches on Vastarmor RX 9060 XT 16GB OC?

Walking through the Brookhaven Hospital hallways was a nightmare; the dynamic shadows on the walls had these weird jagged tears that totally killed the atmosphere. I checked HWiNFO and saw the VRAM clock on my Vastarmor Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB OC was bouncing wildly between 2100-2300MHz, causing frame times to swing from 11-28ms. I tried forcing hyper-threading optimizations in the driver panel, but that was a total waste of time—it didn't fix the tearing and actually pushed my core temps from 62℃ up to 78℃. I felt completely stuck until I used MSI Afterburner to manually lock the memory frequency at 2250MHz and tweaked the core voltage to 1.12V. In the monitoring panel, VRAM usage stayed steady at 9.4-11.2GB, and the frame time graph finally flattened out. I did hit a brief black screen when I first locked the clock, but dropping the offset by 50MHz fixed it. Now core temps sit at 65-68℃ with fans humming between 1600-1800 RPM. After running a few benchmarks, the shadow glitches are gone and frame times are rock steady at 11.2-14.5ms.
