  2. Windows 10 audio stuttering/cracking issues

    I know there are quite a few threads open for this issue but after hours of research and trial and error I haven't found a solution yet. Plus I'm not that much into the internals of Windows and can't really figure out what all those captured data means.

    The issue is simple: I often hear a loud cracking sound when I move over menu entries in game which cause short sound effects like a single "click" sound. This happens more or less frequent and becomes annoying quickly. Moreover I realized that those short sounds often don't play as intended. If you move over quickly you hear a click sound for each menu entry, sometimes you hear nothing at all for 1-2 seconds and then you hear it fade in and work as intended.

    Same goes for VLC player - when I move around the timeline quickly you often hear the cracking when the video starts playing again after "jumping".

    I tested with LatencyMon and got a highest DPC latency of 2557 us with a message that my system couldn't handle realtime audio.

    So things I already tried:

    • Updated BIOS to latest version
    • Tried disabling HPET (though in Windows 10 this seems to be a resolved issue since HPET only runs for specific applications)
    • Updated all drivers
    • Various other things in the BIOS which did not help

    And now for the data. I got the following:


    As far as I understand the most troublesome drivers seem to be the Realtek HD Audio driver and the DirectX Kernel.

    Little side-note: I had a SoundBlaster ZX a time ago which I sent back. The card had - though it should move audio processing to the sound card instead doing it on the CPU - the same issues with cracking sounds.

    Moreover the Windows installation is quite fresh (beginning of June) so there shouldn't be much issues from cluttering.

    EDIT: My PC specs are the following (it should handle that well enough)

    • i5 6600K 4C @ 4.7 Ghz
    • AMD Radeon R9 290
    • 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM
    • System drive SSD 256GB
    • AsRock Z170 Extreme 4+ MoBo

    Experiencing strange behavior (choppy audio + low fps) DPC Latency?

    After a fresh reboot, I started Dota and played for a bit, encountered bad audio and fps. Then I checked the Event Viewer but there were no errors/warnings that happened during playing.

    I don't think memory is the issue. During playing there are almost 3GB of RAM free and about 2.5 on standby. Also the disk usage was pretty low after the game loaded.

  4. CRACKING AUDIO AND LOW FPS ISSUES.

    Windows 10 and LOW FPS in games

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    Are you facing this issue with a particular game or with all games?

    I suggest you to go into the games settings and check if the FPS is set to low. IF its low then change it into high.

    Also see if the Monitor screen resolution matches the game screen resolution. You can check it by going into the setting of the game and check.

    Let us know the status of the issue. We will be glad to assist you further.

    Thank you.
