Sound out of sync on MAXIMUS VIII RANGER

[Orici]

I have just recently build a system and notices that the sound is slightly out of sync with videos and cut scenes in-game.

I have installed all drivers and flashed BIOS to 1402 (newest).

What can i do to fix this? Maybe a new soundcard can fix this?

I have:
Asus Maximus VIII Ranger
Asus GeForce GTX 980 Ti Strix Gaming DirectCU III OC HDMI 3xDP 6GB
Asus ROG Swift PG279Q
Intel Core i7 6700K 4,0GHz Socket 1151
Samsung 950 Pro Series MZ-V5P512BW 512GB (M.2 NVme)
Corsair Vengeance LPX Black DDR4 PC21300/2666MHz CL16 2x8GB

It looks good except for the high hard page fault count, I don't know if it's normal to be that high but here is an interesting article I found on using latencymon. It talks about hard page faults and how to avoid them.

Ok but is it not high to have DPC in 586 us? I have heard people wanting in the low 100-200 ?

Anyway, i will try a fresh install soon and just install what is needed.

Are you using a dedicated sound card or the motherboard sound card?

motherboard

Thank you

Yeah you could do a windows reinstall if you like and make sure you get the latest motherboard drivers. I'm not guaranteeing this will solve anything but it might, try running latencymon after installing the motherboard and NVidia drivers, don't run windows update and see if anything improves.

I ran Latencymon to have something to compare with, I ran for approximately 11 minutes like you did.

Click it a few times to make it bigger.

You have so much lower then me. Do you think my higher score is because of drivers?

It's possible it could be drivers or other software or even system configuration I really don't know, this is the first time I ever ran Latencymon.

Are you using anything wireless? I am all hard wired.

No..

I suppose you could do a windows reinstall and install only the drivers that are needed and run Latencymon again. I know this will take some time but it might help with the latency.

No guarantees though. 🙂
