Hi there!

The problem I am having is that in games, only tested with Overwatch, fps goes down really bad and there's a weird robotic sound my speakers are making.

Here is a link to a video I shot with my phone that shows the issue:

I had this problem even on Youtube, it couldn't play videos correctly for some reason, but now it seems okay, the problem remains in Games.

I have the following brand new configuration, all parts were bought and assembled by me.

Inte Core i5-6402P 2.80 GHz Skylake, 6 MB, Socket 1151
MSI Z170A GAMING M3 Motherboard
HyperX Savage Black 8GB DDR4, 2133 MHz, x2
Corsair RM850X, 80+ Gold, Active PFC modular power supply
MSI GTX 1060 3GB 192 bit graphics card

Running Windows 10, last updated today.

I ran out of things to do, have no idea what's causing this.


EDIT: I have the latest driver downloaded using the nvidia app, the geforce experience.

Hey guys!

After 2 hours on chat with Nvidia Live support, I have amazing news!

They had no idea what my problem was.

Out of frustration, I tried something I thought before, but in my tiny little head I thought that can't be it, so out of pure rage, I decided to simply change the PCI slot.

It works perfectly now!
