  • This paper addresses three critical limitations in previous analyses of RIS-aided wireless systems: propagation environments with fixed diversity gain, restricted spatial correlation profiles, and approximation methods that fail to capture the system behavior in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime. To overcome these challenges, we conduct an exact asymptotic analysis focused on the left tail of the SNR distribution, which plays a critical role in high-SNR system performance. Additionally, to account for general correlation profiles and fading environments with variable diversity and coding gains, we consider arbitrarily correlated Nakagami-m fading channels. The analytical results show that fading correlation induces a horizontal shift in the asymptotic behavior -- represented as a straight line in the log-dB scale -- of the PDF and CDF, displacing these curves to the left. The asymptotic linear coefficient quantifies this shift, while the angular coefficient remains unaffected. Moreover, the results reveal that the high sensitivity of the linear coefficient to correlation arises from the aggregated contribution of all marginal asymptotic terms, effectively capturing each channel's correlation characteristics.
