You need to understand its not a hardware problem but likely software and bloat. You would likely find bad dpc latency on a lot of modern systems.


If you want good dpc latency, install windows yourself and tweak the system. I used to have a system that idled at 7us maximum and would hit 55us when gaming it never went above this because i tweaked the entire system turning off every little thing i even disabled unused usb ports.

Its not snake oil anymore than presentmon is snake oil its a read out of your systems latency and driver calls. It even gives details on the process doing it...

OK before I read all of that.

WHY would you buy a Laptop w/ RTX 4050? Let's look at that first. It's hot garbage.

I would ask how did you test the latencymon?
The highest DPC is caused by the Windows Driver Framework, so as long as the rest drivers are low then you will be fine.

The main tasks of the WDF are the plug and play support and power management of the devices. Such components are often set to use cpu 0 (the first P thread) by default, but with these hybrid processors and the default power plans that allows all P cores to park and may be causing this issue.

4050 mobile gpu is better than amd or intel igpus
but not very good for games

might as well be the battery drainer and heater in the laptop

This is the best result after 15 minutes I got today with performance mode activated and firefox browser in use only. Is it okay or should I return my laptop. Today is last day I can ask for the refund or replacement of laptop. Again, I got better result but I really do not know what should I experience with bad result when it says I may experience drop puts, clicks, pops. I pay close attention and I can't hear any dropouts, cracks and pops.

If this latency problem is an issue on so many systems wouldn't people complain and make a big fuss?

No because people are stupid and ignorant of whats under the hood. Its likely the latency is fine the audio has no pop but its just not ideal. Why? Because of the os windows sucks past windows 7 for latency. It could be the drivers or a bios setting. It could be windows settings until you go down the rabbit hole you wont know.


You dont return laptops over bad dpc latency, Ill bet you find bad dpc latency in a pre build too.

or that the laptops ram is poor, its impossible to find high performance laptop ram that the oems put in their laptops

its literally nothing to put in the marketing for them, but does make performance differences

if you want speed a desktop PC is best. a laptop is light mobile and (battery) energy efficient. if you build your own PC, you get the parts you want and speed but uses more electricity.

something to mull over.
