    Audio Crackling


    Hi,


    Lastly, my audio in some games started to crackle.

    I can start a game, play for a while, and then the audio starts to crackle.

    What also happens is that I can play for like 5 minutes and then my game freezes and the audio is crackling.

    Another problem is that after the freeze, my network connection is lost.


    I have an external sound card Focusrite Scarlett Solo 2nd Gen which I thought was the issue - but it also happens from the audio output of the motherboard.

    I tried reinstalling the motherboard drivers, the GPU drivers, and my network card drivers, none of these helped.


    I am really frustrated with this situation and I am really at a loss.


    Hope someone could help me with this...

    :)

    Audio Crackling

    Recently, I've noticed that the audio with my speakers and headphones is "crackling". It doesn't seem to matter what the volume is set at, nor what program I'm running. If I'm playing a game, the audio crackles. If I'm listening to music, the audio crackles.
    I've tried downloading/updating my audio drivers, but nothing seems to help.

    USB headphones have never been kind to me. They always hiss, pop and crackle. The fact that you can hear it when no audio is being played suggests it's a power /connection issue.

    Do you have any 3.5mm or RCA based headphones you can try?
