Hey guys, so when playing games and I alt tab, after around the 3rd or forth time when alt tabbing back into the game, the audio suddenly becomes crackled, FPS drops significantly (from 60FPS), and the only way to fix it is me rebooting the rig.

That is the main cause of using it. Another is from like 2-3 hours of playing, it suddenly drops. I am using my monitor for audio, and when I use my junky turtle beaches, it doesn't happen. Never. Not once.

I don't have EVGA precision and will download it today because it's a nuisance. I'll get the performance logs or what ever, but has anyone experienced the crackling and distorted audio as well as the FPS drop? It stated happening around January and my computer has never experienced something like that before. Is it the GPU or Monitor that is causing the problem? I think it's the monitor but don't know what specifically is the problem.

Selling my parts of my 900D rig for a jacked up Ncase M1. PM me for offers if interested (will take some reasonable-low offers because I'm desperate).

Parts that I'm selling: 900D (1 slot cover broken for stealth DVD drive mod) | Asus Z87 Deluxe | Cooler Master 212 Evo | Corsair 4x2GB black ram @1600mhz | EVGA 1000G2 PSU (2 cables with missing heat shrink) | DVD drive | HP membrane keyboard | Ducky Shine 3 YOTS in blue switches (warranty sticker broken)

I get audio crackling sometimes in CoD: Ghosts. Still didn't find a fix for it, but for your problem, you should try to update your audio and graphics card drivers.
