Here are my results with the required settings:

snake@snake:~$ sudo cyclictest -t4 -p 80 -N -n -i 10000 -l 10000 -q
[sudo] password for snake:
# /dev/cpu_dma_latency set to 0us

My NUC is in its original case with a fan.
I was thinking of a fanless case, but I like original NUC's form factor that sits well in my rack.

Thanks for your info, koko6969koki.  Pls check these fanless NUC chassis, such as Akasa Thermal Solution.  Without the fan your NUC will sing a lot better.
BTW, did you measure the latency after stop playing? Shy

BIOS tweaks include turning off hyperthreading, multicore scheduling, turbo boost, secure boot, unused USB ports, SATA port, HD Audio, WLAN, Bluetooth, Virtualisation.  If not using HDMI port, can also turn that off.

A slightly different cyclictest, while using Mpd and playing music:

$ sudo cyclictest -t4 -p 90 -N -s -i 10000 -l 10000 -q

Have built my own RT kernel (5.10.41-rt42) and also using CPUset to optimise processes across CPUs
https://www.snakeoil-os.net/forums/Threa...-processes
and CamillaDSP for convolution (DSP)
https://www.snakeoil-os.net/forums/Threa...Correction
Plus tweaking of process priorities.

Thanks a lot, Snoopy8.  Your value is so wonderful!!!  And I wish you would try the fanless chassis.  At least a heavier chassis reduces the resonance and vibration a lot, esp. when the sound is loud. Shy

BTW, I'll have my NUC soon. Haydn Music Server – Ediscreation  Shy
