Solved Warzone makes my sound crash on my PC

Status
Not open for further replies.
So the sound my PC crashes/stops working when I play Warzone (not multiplayer) and not only in game sound but all sound to PC and I have to restart my PC to get sound back. It happens in all game modes and when I play with other platforms or the same. Does anyone else experience this or know of a fix?

I have an AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT GPU and my sound goes through a Sound Blaster G6 amp connected to my Beyerdynamic 990DT Pro headset.
 
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-core Processor, Noctua NH-U9S 46.44 CFM CPU Cooler, gigabyte X570 I AORUS Pro WIFI Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard, Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2x16 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory, Sabrent Rocket 512 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive, Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT 8 GB Gaming OC Video Card, NZXT H210 Mini ITX Tower Case, Corsair SF 600 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular SFX Power Supply, Windows 10.

These are all my components, as you can tell I am not much of a computer person.

Any help is appreciated
 
Hi,

Have you tried setting your power plan to high performance in the Control Panel? Are you overclocking any components? What build of Windows 10 are you using? Did you install the latest driver for your video card?

Try performing a clean boot and see if the same behavior occurs.
Hi Evan,

I checked and my power plan is on high performance. I performed a clean boot and the issue still happens.

All Drivers are updated. Not sure about overclocking but I believe I am overclocking a couple components. I am running Windows 10 Version 2004 (Build 19041.630).

Like, I mentioned. I am not super knowledgeable about computers so overclocking is a bit beyond me. A friend of mine built this rig for me. Warzone is the only game that causes issues for me.
 
Have you removed the Sound Blaster G6 amp and tried the onboard?

Other than than would suggest contacting Sound Blaster and looking at their FAQ.
I found a reddit thread where someone with the same issue (same amp and headset) was having issues and recommended changing the PCIe from auto to 3 which I did and it seems to be working. I have no idea what this did but it seems to have fixed my issue. thank you all that chimed in for guidance.
