ASUS Z170i wireless adapter causing latency

Hello /r/tech,

I completed my build and everything works flawlessly except for the latency caused by the wireless adapter driver. I downloaded the latest driver from this direct link but the problem has not been resolved.

I even tried CMOS reset but it did not make any difference.

When WiFi adapter is enabled the computer performance is significantly degraded. Mouse stutter, sound popping, random crashes/hangs, poor multi-tasking performance etc.

See LatencyMon results below:

WiFi adapter enabled

WiFi adapter disabled

What else I can try to fix this problem? ASUS wants me to send the board for repair but this is the only computer I have and I cannot afford not having a computer at the moment. I was hoping they would send me a replacement board but they said they will repair the board. I purchased it from Microcenter about a week ago.

Thanks for your help!
