Hi there,
I am a PC tech who was approached by a PT user (sound engineer/producer in the advertising/documentary field) to build a replacement for his working HP Z400 which was lagging during his bigger jobs.
After research, I built a PC which specifications are in my signature.
I applied the recommended optimisations here (I removed the

When we load a small project with video (with the DNxHD codec) we get the following error after a few seconds:
Audio processing could not complete due to conflicts with other CPU tasks or a potential clocking issue.
Verify your sync cables or try changing the HW Buffer Size
(AAE-9093)
We went through every troubleshooting guide related to this error. They were mainly for Macs.
We removed the optimisations, one by one, and came across this thread:

When we try the same project after removing the PT card, using the ASIO driver we get no error.
When we try the same project with the card in but video disabled we get no error.
We've tried all possible slot configurations and also swapped the new Graphics card with the old one from the Z400.
Alongside this error, my client uses mostly the H.264 codec and regardless of all and any of the above configurations the video is stuttery and unusable.
The old set up has no problem whatsoever with this codec.
I would really appreciate any suggestions because we're at a dead end and the next step is selling the PC or parts to cut our losses.
Thanks very much.
