F1 2018 PC Audio Stuttering Issues

Recommended Posts

Hi,

Since launch (v1.4) the moment I began playing the game there are noticeable audio stuttering issues. It can vary from a break in the audio once every say, 30 seconds, to almost constant unplayable annoyance. I updated to v1.5 once the patch was released in the hope it would resolve the issue but it just hasn't... I've had no issues at all with PC game audio and I must not be the only person.

For reference I'm running a 1080ti GPU
60hz 1080p display (I have tried configuring the audio settings too to see if it helps).
i7 7700k
16GB GDDR4 RAM
Senheizer GSP 600's

If this is a known bug I'm hoping it'll be fixed. I notice on 2017's release there were similar issues.

From audio code:
  • Can you please ask him for the sound card/chip/device he’s using?
  • please ask him to try setting the audio update rate to “Low”, that will lower the CPU strain.
  • he should make sure to have the latest sound drivers for his audio device
  • he also should make sure not to run anything in the background that might access the audio device

Update rate is already set to low.
Audio drivers are up to date and I've never had stutter problems, nor do I have them during any other games - Only F1 2018.
Nothing else is running.

Running a ASUS STRIX Onboard audio - No problems with it.

Hi @kenkenna. Please could you send us your dxdiag and hardware settings file and we can take a look and see what might be going on here?

Hi, sorry for the late reply.

It looked like either patch 1.5 or 1.6 fixed my audio problem.
But I appreciate the effort to try and resolve the problem - It's what the community likes!
