In music latency refers to the amount of time it takes to make the note and sing the note through your speakers. For instance when I play my electric drums through midi to USB which triggers sound software that goes through my sound card I usually have a latency (ms ping) of 25. That is while using ASIO drivers for the lowest latency I can get. That doesn't really have anything to do with my CPU or RAM. It's all in how fast my drums can communicate through USB and my sound card to produce a sound. That is latency.I maybe getting my terms mixed up then.
But if I am running a music program like Traktor and and I am getting signal spikes and drop out at the same time as being shown by the software that laptop is being overworked, then surely upgrades are required.
Or having carrried out a CClean and defrag, its time to reinstall
Thanks all
Now, how is the software showing the laptop is being overworked? You haven't exactly elaborated your situation that much so before you go wasting money I'd make sure first it's RAM and not something else. Show screenshots if you will.
