(Game restart after every setting changed)
Note: Make sure to change windows power plan to High Performance for CPU performance consistency.
Note: Calculated MAX RAM Speed for specific CPUs to avoid RAM channel and PCIe 4.0 Bottleneck
(Ryzen 7 5800X 32MB Cache 2733MTs Dual Channel 24.52GBs MAX Bandwidth) = PCIe 4.0 32GBs
(Ryzen 7 5700X 32MB Cache 2733MTs Dual Channel 24.52GBs MAX Bandwidth) = PCIe 4.0 32GBs
(Core i5 11400 12MB Cache 2800MTs Dual Channel 23.89GBs MAX Bandwidth) = PCIe 4.0 32GBs
Tested with 32GB RAM Dual Rank Dual Channel (2x16GB/4x8GB) 2733MTs 14-18-18-36 1.35V
Note: When running more than (2x8GB) sticks of ram or faster than 3200MTs you need to Enable PBO settings to gain performance.
Note: intel 11th Gen and Ryzen 5000 RAM Speed 2400MTs 15-15-15-15-35 TRFc 421 1.2V (2x8GB) for best responsiveness avoiding diminishing performance with faster RAM speeds.
Note: Make sure to run at least 2 sticks of Quality CL16 3600MTs gaming ram in dual channel Min 16GB (2x8GB) with a Gen4 M.2 NVMe SSD for Max FPS with 14th Gen intel.
Tips for Smooth Gameplay without Stutter.
Note: For Smoothest Gameplay FPS, AVG, 1%Low, 0.1Low must be identical FPS 60
AVG 60
1%Low 60
0.1%Low 60
Note: GPU Drivers must be properly optimized by AMD/Nvidia and Intel to improve performance and remove frametime spikes/stutters.
Note: For 1080p max settings you will need Min 12GB for most demanding games 2025.
Note: For 8GB VRAM GPU only use about 6.5GB of memory and leave around 1.5GB-2GB space to avoid stutters and slowdown.
Note: V-Sync must be optimized by developer.
Note: VRAM must be optimized by the developer.
Note: Shader Compilation Stutter must be optimized by the developer.
Note: Traversal stutter must be optimized by the developer.
Note: Reduce graphics settings to stay under the VRAM limit.
Note: Disable Resizable Bar in motherboard bios it causes stutter in some games.
Note: Use V-Sync/RivaTuner 60fps for smoother gameplay.
Note: Download CPUZ and check if memory is running 1:1 fullspeed.
Note: Check that your PCIe configuration is correct and running full speed.
Note: PS5 NVMe requirement Gen4x4 Read 5,500MB/s. Also make sure its got TLC Cache.
Note: Install Windows and all Games on Gen4 M.2 NVMe SSD.
