[TonKlang]

Hey Guys,

No one got any idea?

I'm not aware of an "issue" of DPC.

Pretty much any board should be fine when it comes to DPC latency. CPUs are so powerful these days dedicated chips won't make a lick of difference to audio stuttering.

DPC latency has nothing to do with how fast a cpu is. High DPC latency is caused by bad BIOS and driver programming.
Unfortunately, anantech is one of the few that includes a dpc latency test for every mb review, but matx z97 reviews are missing.

Yeah thats the fact I discovered with DPC latency,
but where to find the z97s mATXs Boards?

Here is an review oft the MSI Z97m Gaming with DPC latency check,

looks quite good
anyone got more?

I'm aware of what DPC is as well, but I'm not aware of any sort of widespread DPC "issue".

 

[TonKlang]

Why widespread?
In fact z87 had more issues on DPC latency,
but my issue is more the lack oft infos on mATX/uATX Formfaktor z97s
Whatever
