The simplest explanation for a problem is sometimes usually the correct one. Since you have tried all other possible solutions, you have to test it with what is left to test with, the mobo and cpu. No need to get new, you can just take it to a shop and test with spares.

Bad audio drivers, incorrect audio settings, loose connections, faulty receiver, etc. Outdated or corrupted drivers, incorrect sample rates or bitrates, and interference from other devices can also contribute to the problem. Even high CPU utilization can cause a drop in audio data. Of course...

Could be something else then affecting the sound. Might not be related to the audio processing. Could be so many reasons, pretty difficult to guess unless someone tests it properly.

Thats a very old platform without any practical upgrade option. You should think about a new machine.

It can be anything from software glitches to hardware failures, but since your service guy has already zeroed in to the audio codec, we should settle with that I guess.

Well, theoretically a sound card does all the audio processing by itself bypassing the integrated audio chip on the motherboard. But you never know until you are sure that it is the actual issue. A good option would be to first test it with something inexpensive before going all in. Something...

Unless yo have specific use case, 128gb will be way too much, probably wastage of resource. Other than that, sounds good.

That's a pretty good configuration. Based on the last error message, it sounds like VRAM saturation during some kind of load/activity spike. This might happen sometimes due to some kind of overlay or shader cache overload. I would be rather interested to know if this can be replicated with...

We will need more information. Full component list with make/model/variant details, along with age of the build, OS version and temp details.

There are some details here... https://www.pcmag.com/news/asus-tuf-gaming-t500-hands-on-computex-2025

My bad, heres the right one... https://www.techspot.com/review/2800-aoc-24g4/ Seems like this is the successor of the other one with some refinements.

It is not always malicious. The msftconnecttest.com/redirect URL is a Microsoft feature used to check network connectivity, specifically when a device cannot establish a connection to the internet. It's part of Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI) on Windows devices, which tests if a...

Those links or downloads below texts are usually click baits. Not sure how the algorithm works to bind them to the page, or not. Guess it didnt bind with your use case. As long as it worked out for you...all good.
