I very recently put together a new build for myself with a friend. Everything was great until the audio and visual would occasionally lock up for a second. The screen momentarily freezes and the sound makes what I can only describe as a digital stutter.
After looking into it I found it is something to do with latency as latency checks were often requested in troubleshooting with similar problems, I've attached mine below to show examples using 2 different Latency checkers.

My build:
•*Asus P8Z68-V/GEN3 Motherboard
•*Intel Sandybridge i5-2500K Unlocked Core i5 Quad-Core Processor (3.30GHz, 6MB Cache, Socket 1155)
• 2 x Asus 1GB GeForce GTX 560TI DirectCUII PCI-E Graphics Cards*running in SLi
• Wireless network is a*TP-Link TL-WN781ND 150Mbps Wireless PCI Express Adapter
• Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600Mhz CL9 1.5V Non-ECC Unbuffered
• Running Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium with Service Pack 1, 64-bit
I'm pretty sure it's related to uTorrent as it only seems to do it when it's on.
I can force this to happen by running uTorrent, opening a couple of youtube videos, surfing the net and running iTunes simultaneously.
If you have any ideas where to start please let me know and ill report back with what I find.
