dj laptop, dpc latency issue?

hey i just bought a new laptop and it with dpc latency checkers getting bad readings no matter what devices i disable in device manager. Not sure if should return laptop. Question does dpc latency affect djing?

I know its bad for producing with a daw, but does it affect me in traktor?

you could always buy one of the little USB soundcards that will help.
have you tried messing about with latency settings in traktor?

yes even if i connect an external soundcard and adjust traktor settings getting spikes in latency mon, and dpc latency checker. seems to be something hardware related, but so far not noticing any effect in traktor so far which is why need to know if dpc latency is even an issue with djing
thnks

Which process has the highest execution in LatencyMon? I used many different PC laptops and for me it was usually the USB drivers or GPU drivers that were messy.
