Just FYI - in the release notes for the latest Nvidia driver release (531.18) the issue is still in the open issues tracker.

To chime back in: I've tried installing the latest Nvidia drivers which resulted in crazy latency spikes again. So I'm back to the known working versions.

Perfect, now you have much better audio latency too :)

To be fair, 512 is not even that demanding. At that buffer size I was having no audible/audio issues even with the lastest Nvidia drivers - however, currently I can do 64 samples without a hiccup (with Nvidia spiking around 600 and other unnamed stuff around 1000) on driver version 512.95 which...

And it's not like it wasn't like this before. Googling a lot reveals that this problem is popping up from year to year with different driver versions and after fixing it they forget about it existing and when it pops up again, for a while they just don't give a freak about it again.

Yep, I can also confirm 512.95 is not worse than the 4xx driver I've installed before. I've also installed GFE, PhysX and the HD Audio driver just to make sure those have nothing to do with the latency - they have nothing to do with it.

Installing 512.95 right now and will report back how it is for me.

I've also had success with an old Nvidia driver - the registry hack did nothing for me, though. I'm still having occasional high spikes although they're no longer present as audio popping/crackling. Nvidia still produces the highest spikes but I get some crazy ones that are not related to any...

There are answers, it's just that there isn't a global answer that works for everyone affected. Especially if you look through forums what you'll notice is that everybody who reports their issue fixed always points to a different fix that worked out for them. Not to mention how many different...

To be fair, I've just completed my brand new PC build. My previous one wasn't outdated by any means (Z490 + 10900K) but I felt like upgrading because I really liked the latest improvements that finally after a quite long time are real generational upgrades. My previous build didn't have any...

To be fair I've tried it on Windows 11, should have said that, sorry.

How so?

Okay guys, I may have found something. I'm still testing it but I'd encourage the craftier, more patient and able of you to also see how it works for you. I ran into a software called Intelligent standby list cleaner. As it states, it "will monitor and clear the memory standby list according the...

Thank you, this is really informative. To be honest, I haven't really cared about SpeedStep and HT so far because I was under the impression that as long as you choose the High Performance Power Plan in Windows you wouldn't need to worry about CPU-related latency stuff. But now I'll definitely...

Maybe I'm just stupid for preferring Intel without ever trying AMD but I've legitimately built gaming PCs for so long and Intel was the king at that for a very long time - and kinda still is. Anyways, don't want to spam the thread, so a few more thoughts that could also apply here: Sometimes I...
