How to fix Zhitai TiPro9000 write speed drops in Spider-Man?
Swinging through the skyscrapers was a nightmare; I'd get these blatant hitches where the game would just hang for 2-3 seconds. In an open-world game, that's a total dealbreaker. Digging through my logs, I found the Zhitai TiPro9000 1TB cache was hitting a wall during massive texture streaming, causing a 0.05V voltage drop and spiking the I/O wait times. I tried lowering the graphics settings, but that just made the game look like mush without actually fixing the root cause. I finally went into Device Manager, disabled the write-cache buffer flushing policy, and used a partition tool to re-verify the 4K alignment. Using RTSS, I saw the frame time spikes drop from 30ms down to a tight 12-16ms. I did run into a minor file index error after a hard crash during the process, but a quick chkdsk fixed it. SSD temps are holding at 42-50℃ with the M.2 slot at 48-55℃. The input lag is gone and it finally feels responsive.
