Why is my Maxsun MS-eSport B850M feeling sluggish in Project Orion?

In a visual masterpiece like Project Orion, having this kind of memory latency is just a joke for a B850 platform. The memory routing on the Maxsun MS-eSport B850M felt incredibly sluggish when handling fragmented I/O, leading to a perceptible 110-190ms delay when switching views—it literally felt like playing a slideshow. I tried the 'brute force' method of dropping RAM frequency to 4800MHz, but that just killed my FPS without fixing the lag, which was a total nightmare. I then tried enabling Fast Boot in the BIOS and manually tweaking the slot voltage to 1.34V to clean up the signal. Using a latency tool, random read latency dropped from 88ns to a much tighter 74-78ns, and the controls finally felt connected to my hands. I did experience some brief black screens during cold boots after the voltage change, but updating to the latest BIOS version killed that issue. CPU power stayed between 90-115W and VRMs were steady at 62-67℃. I exported the I/O logs to confirm the fix, and the responsiveness is finally where it should be.
