    After updating all the drivers when I start playing any game audio artifacts start to appear its like cracking noises. They appear after I play for around 5-30 mins.The artifacts go away after 1-2 mins but then reapear after 5-10 mins

    Also I have the problem with usb ports. When I start my pc my mouse is not working, I have to replug it then it starts to work, I tried all of the usb ports the same result. My keyboard are working fine straight away. If I "Restart" PC my mouse works fine without replugging it.

    Try remove realtec audio drivers with DDU + install againf form giga site + reinstall nahamic software. You can't rollback easy for previous bios.

    Fully removed nahamic and nahamic campanion, disabled service - artifacts. Removed realtec drivers with ddu after restart automatically installed realtec again - artifacts. Installed realtec manually from official web - artifacts. Installed Nahimic manually from official web - artifacts. And now it says that Nahimic cannot be used because my audio driver is not up to date or my system is not compatible, I gues thats because I fully removed nahamic companion.

    P.S Got my Nahimic working but no more Nahimic companion

    I would do that. Gigabyte support as good as Razer's support; basically, atrocious!

    Better option is to use recovery when post yours pc, but that will remove everything.

    I did Cloud pc Reset or something like that. Now I have minimum programs: Antivirus, Chrome, Geforce Experience and Battlenet. I am woundering how it will go, but now It has to download the game so I have to test it. I wont update anything yet

    After all this its still cracling. I dont know what to do anymore. I have the same Realtek drivers. Can it be somehow related to gpu temps but it goes back to normal after 5 min. Now I lost my Pantone Screen calibration, great.

    How do you use your laptop on a flat surface without a laptop pad? Try to put something under it so that it has access to more fresh air.
    Stands on this laptop are very low and effectively limit airflow on a flat surface.

    I have 2 books stacked behind the edge of latop so it creates room for airflow. Its not on flat surface. When I play CSGO cracling sounds do not apear, have no idea what is goind on.

    I got my issue. I downloaded FurMark started stress test after 8 min temp reached 76C and the cracking noise appeared. Any ideas how to fix it? Any ideas how to roll back BIOS to FB04?

    It is not easy to rollback bios. You must to break security with rufus and bootable pendrive + flash motherboard with intel FPT software. You need to have an old bios that was removed from the gigabyte site.

    if you've never done this before, don't do this.

    Solved - Switch power mode from perfomance to balanced or remove second ssd. Hopefully power managment will be adjusted with future updates.
