Strange issue between ffxiv and wireless headset.

[tristoune]

Hello folks.

So last week i bought a new headset (the PS4 wireless one, even if i play on PC, it is very good). It works perfectly fine with every games except XIV where i have micro-stutter while playing.

Sometimes, it looks like my whole computer has micro lag since i got this headset. I thought at first i had a memory issue since i changed ram recently too : switched back to old ram and still. Turned down frequency and still. And then i noticed it didnt happened on other games (R6S for example).

Then i asked google and found some old posts on reddit about a conflict between VSS 7.1 and nvidia drivers. Tried to switched back the headset to stereo, no change. Trried to uninstall nvidia sound driver, no change.

The stutter i encounter is sometimes so small, i can't see it, but i can hear it. It's like it drops for 1 or 2 frames but as it also cuts sound, i notice it more.

This is probably not a temperature throttling issue because i monitor my temps all the time and cpu does not go over 60° (watercooling in silent mode) and GPU does not go over 80.

This is not unplayable but it's really bugging me. Anyone has an idea ?

up.

If anyone has an idea ...

Could it be possible to have some help ?

At least, could someone help me troubleshoot the culprit ? I'm not alone as some people answered me on reddit, having the same issue.

Ok now i REALLY want some help.

Did Susano EX and each try game was more laggy and sound was more bugy.

I have reinstalled every single drivers and it keeps bugging.
