Avast NDIS high DPC Latency on W7x64

system · December 5, 2010, 3:29pm

I did some testing upon DPC Latency issues, seems there is something with Avast NDIS Firewall Filter Driver.

Done with a Killer Xeno Pro, all tests are done by watching some videos on youtube.

6.0.0.0 with the NDIS driver enabled, my first impression was that the Killer driver must be the cause.

So I tested a few drivers trough, and then it hit me to try disabling the NDIS driver all together.

6.0.0.0 with the NDIS driver disabled.

EDIT: To make sure I tried to remove AVAST and test with COMODO.
6.0.0.0 with COMODO’s NDIS driver enabled.

NOTE: This is with the older 6.0.0.0 Xeno driver, the most recent release makes it look even worse for AVAST.

Seem like this isn’t a serious issue?
Sticking with Comodo for now, probably no need to renew my Avast licenses next year.
