Various speech interruptions across all game titles
Various speech interruptions across all game titles
Hello. I've experienced stutters across all games I play for roughly four days in a row. I've been working on fixing them for the same period. Initially, I noticed stutters only in Dakride, thinking it was just a patch issue. Later, I started hearing a single beep or tone during gameplay, roughly every half hour. The stutters were bothersome but didn't affect gameplay significantly. I read that such sounds could indicate a DRAM refresh failure or memory error. I ran my RAM through MemTest82 and found around 200 failures on one stick. After replacing it with a new one, the tests passed. Once I cleared the RAM, stutters disappeared during play. I've tried resetting CMOS, reinstalling Windows 11, changing RAM profiles, and even using only one stick, but nothing resolved the issue. My system temperatures improved after cleaning, and benchmarks in 3Dmark showed no stutters—only a single instance in FurMark after several tests. Still, I keep hearing those beeps in my headphones, even after a fresh Windows install. The frame time graphs in Afterburner look stable otherwise. It's puzzling since I don't notice any stuttering outside games. I'm running out of options and might have to wait a few months before trying a new build. My current specs are: MB - Gigabyte x570, UD RAM - G.Skill Ripjaws V 3600 MHz, Cl16 GPU, RTX3060 CPU, Ryzen 7 5800X3D, PSU - CollerMaster MWE Gold 650W, OS - Windows 11 PRO, DAC - FiiO K3. My monitor lacks G-Sync. I don't have any RGB effects from app centers or previous installs. I've attached a video with the beeping captured on it (Windows sounds are disabled). Is there any solution to fix this? Thanks for your understanding. DTB.mp4
