How to optimize memory controller for Corsair Vengeance 96GB?
This 96GB kit felt like a ball and chain for my CPU controller. In the dark corridors of Callisto Protocol, my frame rate was bouncing between 40 and 90 FPS like crazy. The massive capacity pushed the memory controller in Gear 2 mode to the limit, resulting in disgusting latency of 110-125ns. I tried dropping the graphics to medium, but the game just looked blurry and the stutters stayed—a complete waste of my time. I went into the BIOS, forced the mode to Gear 1, and bumped the voltage to 1.38V to keep it from falling apart. In RTSS, the frame time graph, which previously looked like an EKG machine, finally flattened out to a stable 12-16ms. I'll be honest, Gear 1 caused two BSODs during launch until I loosened tRFC to 520. Now, RAM temps are 58-64℃ and the CPU is at 72-78℃. Exported logs show a consistent flow, though my fans are screaming at 1400-1600RPM.
