When i go into any game or play some music while scrolling the internet, the audio starts to crackle or pop almost like an LP record static.
The funny thing is that when i reboot the computer (not shut down, but clicking reboot) the problem disappears. However if i shut down the computer, wait for about 10 secs then start it up the audio crackles are back.
If i reboot so the problem goes away then i can play games for as long as i want without the problem appearing again, the problem only comes back after the computer has been shut down.
I have used LatencyMonitor and DPC latency checker, but the values are normal, i have run in depth latency checker as well so test for tight loop latency which has some higher results. i get 166,11512 μs. I am using a i7-7700 3.60Ghz processor and it is hyperthreaded.
If i run the In Depth Latency Checker simultaneous while playing a game the audio crackles become even more apparent, this is probably just because the test loops the CPU or something, but the crackles are identical to the ones i am trying to get rid of so that is why i think that this is a CPU issue or a CPU related issue.
I have tried updating GPU driver and sound drivers several times, but the problem is still there.
I am wondering if it is something that happens during the boot-up process that makes the audio crackling appear, because as i said earlier, if i start up the computer and then click restart computer then the audio is back to normal. But if i shut it down and wait a little then start it up again the problem is back.
BTW audio enhancements are disabled and changing CD/DVD/Studio quality and frequency has no effect at all.
GPU: GTX 1080Ti
CPU: i7-7700 3.60Ghz
RAM: 16GB
OS: Win 10 64bit
Any ideas?
