alovarosa

I mean yes but in the end both game companies are owned BY Microsoft soo guess they are still to blame

Feel free to give me a better term to descirbe that I can not properly use my Official Microsoft (verified) Headset, with my Official Microsoft Adapter, on my Official Microsoft operation system in official Microsoft games.

(From my post) I have already tried to reach out to the dev team of Halo Infinite, they told me it ain't their problem, Talked to the support for my Headset manufacturer, they told me it ain't their problem and when asked if the could tell my problem to their contact at microsoft they also told me they don't have one... https://forums.gearsofwar.com/t/gears-5-pc-audio-stuttering-issue/39678/36 Forum entry, someone talked to the Support and the support told them it isn't their but the Headset manufactures Problem. Wich, again, I contacted and they told me it's not their problem c:

Well not every single one but I provided 3 posts with together over 200 replys having the same issue. And that's just 3 posts in the MS forums and reddit, there are several forum entries about this exact same issue in the Coalation forums (Gears of war 5) several others with the same issue on answere.microsoft.com forums, several more on the Halo, gears of war and XBOX Subreddit. So jeah you frame it like I am the only person having this problem... I am not, not by a long shot. The thing also is this error just occures with specific hardware (the XBOX Wireless adapter + ANY Headset connected to it on PC) and specific software (2 MS Games). So of course you won't find millions of entries about this issue because, let's be honest, the aren't a lot of people Using a headset connected to the XBOX Wireless adapter that also play Halo Infinite or Gears of war 5 But that doesn't mean that we do not all have the same problem, it doesn't mean we do not have a problem and it doesn't mean we are at fault.... And it especially doesn't mean we can go and say "oh well but MS has so much to do it's not important" like... I paid money for this it should just work... it should espacially work with MS own freaking games <.<

I wish companies wouldn't sell products that don't work as intended and ignore the large amount of posts about this topic <.<

Well I am not saying this product is intentionally broken. But I AM Saying that they either don't know or rather don't care about the issue at all

Thanks but I already tried litterally every single USB Port on my PC and if that was the problem idk why it just would be noticeable in exactly 2 games and non more And I am by far not the only one with this issue in just these specific games.

So we all know and ... well we all know Microsoft. I titled myself a "fanboy" for a long time but at the Moment Microsoft is activly selling broken products for over 2 years now and NO ONE cares... This is about the XBOX Wireless Adapter for PC, the XBOX Wireless Adapter for PC allows you to wirelessly connect your XBOX Devices to your PC, so for example your XBOX Controller OR your XBOX Headset! And here is the Issue certain games (funnily enough mostly Microsoft exclusives....) Have MASSIVE Audio stutters when your headset is connected via the XBOX Wireless adapter Check this Video and especially listen to the Vehicle coming towards me! So as you have seen in the Video Halo Infinite is affected and also Gears of War 5... again both games made by Microsoft.... GoW5 should ring bells to some of you because... this game is out for over 2 years now and the Problem does actually exist since back then! And btw no it's not my headset every single other game works without a problem. Why do I know it's the XBOX Wireless adapter and not my Headset you ask? Well: 1. there are a shit ton of post about this problem online (I will link a few down below) 2. The exact same Problem occures when I plug my 3.5mm chich headset into my XBOX Controller (you can use your controller as audio passthrough), and connect my controller to the wireless adapter but NOT when I connect my controller directly via USB Cable! I have already tried to reach out to the dev team of Halo Infinite, they told me it ain't their problem, Talked to the support for my Headset manufacturer, they told me it ain't their problem and when asked if the could tell my problem to their contact at microsoft they also told me they don't have one... I have also created several posts on the MS Help website and tried to get in contact with the customer support several times! I either do not get an answere at all or it's basically "well to bad we might someday do something bout it but probably not" And I am pissed..... Like ffs if your Product is NOT Working with YOUR OWN Games stop freaking selling it.... Yeah I hope someone reads this and I really hope we can start a discussion about this topic because no one is helping us and I just want to bring some attention to this shady topic. Links of Forums discussing this issue. 1. (not 100% my issue but very likeley connected!)

tl:dr Please connect your XBOX Controller with the XBOX Wireless adapter to your PC, plug any 3.5mm jack device into it, and tell me if you audio in Halo infinite or Gears of War 5 (and possibly cyberpunk 2077) is "stuttering" or sounds "wrong" in any way. Because this issue persists for over 2 years now and no one is doing anything.... Long Version. I own a XBOX wireless adapter for my Windows 10 PC I mostly use it to connect my XBOX Controller to my PC but I did buy a Turtle beach stealth 700 gen 2 a couple of month ago that also uses the XBOX Wireless adapter to connect to my PC. I didn't have any problems with my Headset until Halo infinite released.... In that game I did notice my sound was "stuttering" immensly (btw this can also be heard when I recorded the sound!) and it was really distracting. Seeing my FPS rate beeing around 70-100 performance shouldn't have been the problem, and I was right. When I plugged my Wired headset (HyperX cloud 2) into my PC and my problems were gone. I started googeling for a fix and I found out that this bug seems to be first recorded around 2020 when Gears of War 5 released so this games seems to be affected as well. Anyways I found dozens of posts with either the exact same issue or a very simmilar one if you try to use spatialaudio/dolbyatmos or anything like this. I have also created some posts on the answere.microsoft.com forum myself. But no one seems to be interested in fixing this problem, the MS Forum didn't do anything besides telling me "well we can't do anything bout it", wich was to be expected since they are mostly volunteers if I understand correctly. But several users did claim to have contacted the MS Support directly and their answere was "well we might look into that have a nice day"... since the Driver for the XBOX Wireless adapter wasn't updated since 2017 they did not... I myself wasn't able to contact the MS support yet because, and I gonne be very honest here, they don't show me the option to start a chat with an employee and I do really not have the social skills neccessary to make myself clear enough over a phone call. I am honestly a bit mad at Microsoft. I have a "XBOX Wireless certified" headset with an "XBOX Wireless adapter" and I can not play "XBOX first party games" properly? what the hell? Also no one at Microsoft seems to care about this issue like at all... Now YOU, the Community comes into play. Before I start to make a giant fuzz about all of this I would like to try and gather some additional data. So everyone who owns an XBOX Wireless adapter for PC and either a Headset that you can connect to it OR an Headset that you can Connect to your XBOX controller (so anything with a 3.5mm headphone jack) wich you then can (wierlessly) connect to your PC via the XBOX Wireless adapter. I BEG every single of you to test out if you have audio issues in Halo infinite and or Gears of war 5 (or CP2077 but for me the stuttering there is very mild but still noticeable if you know what to listen for)and tell me the please. If you want any additional informations from me feel free to ask.

IF this is a more common issue and not just due to my specific hardware my endgoal would be to try to ask the LMG Crew if they could atleast mention this in the WAN Show since I do not belive this topic is interesting enough to make a standalone video but I think it could be an interesting topic for the WAN show AND... I am just out of options at this point I just hope to make this topic public enough so MS does atleast acknowledge the existence of this problem...

Perfect, thank you I now I have all the information I need! I guess I will wait a bit and see how the GPU prices will develop. But ATM I think the Laptop would be a better solution in my case since packing the GPU individually isn't just a bit of time consumption every time but also would take up more space in my backpack.

Nice, thanks for your reply and especially for your PCpartPickerList, looks pretty good and I gonna look into this! You are right the current GPU marked is... rough to say the least and I am tbh not interested in buying used hardware since I really don't wanna handle the situation with a private person IF the hardware is broken or breaks and tbh again I am pretty scared of not noticing a little detail and getting scammed. I gonna make up my mind since after your input I see myself having 2 options since I wanna get a new device hopefully in march or april. Buying a lower performing GPU or just buying a Laptop. I wanna ask you one last thing that you may or may not can answere if I may. Do you think a miniITX PC will possibly break sooner than a laptop? I just think about that because a laptops Hardware is pretty "packed" and not modular like a tower is so I think a tower could potentially have problems like the PCI-E connector of my GPU breaking because I would ride with it in a bus on partially pretty "rough" roades wich could shake around my system quiet a bit. Am I beeing paranoid or is this a legitimate concern? And again thanks awesome help so far!

Okay, thanks. Buying a used GPU probably would be a good idea if I find one that fits in the case. And the Processor was a neat tip! Thanks that easily would spare me 40€!! Also jeah, I saw laptops now that are a good bunch stronger than that one for just like 100€ more. Gonna look out for those. So I gonna ask you personally would you rather build a miniITX pc or just get a laptop if you wan't to travel around with it approx once a week?

Thanks for your Input! But I more wanted to know about the General Disadvantages of a miniITX Build over a Laptop (if there are any). I should have stated more clearly that the miniITX setup and the Laptop are supposed to be "suggestions" than my final picks, just to have some sort to compare what I am trying to achieve with them And while I do not really rust Userbenchmarks, that was still a good tip and I will change the GPU IF I am going with the miniITX Build
