I got through about half of the game and I decided to hook my pc up to my audio system. I have it hooked up and working, but whenever I try to play far cry 4 I get sound through my system, but the game has an unplayable frame-rate after having my system hooked up.
I had the audio being sent to my reciever through hdmi. I thought that might be the problem, but I also tried using a digital optical cable and I still had the ridiculous lag. I tried all of the settings on my receiver for sound modes and nothing changes the choppy framerate.
I reverted back to just using my internal speakers and the game works perfectly. All of my other games have perfect frame-rates when using my audio system as well.
I am connected to a Sony TV at 60 hz.
My System Specs:
Intel Core i5 4690k
