Fixing blurry textures on Manli Snow Fox RTX 5080 OC in RE9

Whenever the camera zoomed in on a monster's face, the skin textures looked like they'd been smeared with oil—it was honestly stressing me out. The default sampling on the Manli Snow Fox RTX 5080 OC in DLSS Quality mode just wipes out too many high-frequency details, killing the visual sharpness by about 30%. I tried killing DLSS and running native 4K, but my FPS tanked from 90 down to 45, which just added to the frustration. I eventually went into the NVIDIA Control Panel and pushed the sharpening from 20% up to 75%, while locking the render resolution at 100%. Using a comparison tool, the edge contrast popped, and those tiny skin wrinkles on the monsters finally became visible again. I actually pushed it to 100% at first, but the edges got these hideous white halos, so I backed it off to 72% to find the balance. GPU temps are holding at 68-74°C with fans at 1600 RPM. 3DMark texture benchmarks confirm the sampling is back on point, and the input lag feels way more responsive now.
