Intel Audio Hiccup

Random question /g/ents, does anybody else with an i7 experience random audio hitches?
I used to be an AMD faggot, but now I own two systems with Intel i7 CPUs and both exhibit the same symptoms.
One is a MacBook Pro (Late 2011, 8,1) with an i7 2620-M, the second is brand new desktop w/ memelake: Z170 / i7-6700K.
Both of them, very occasionally, will have brief hiccups in audio. For a brief moment the current sample will loop a few times and then it will resume as normal.
I used to think it was a Mac thing, and since that was not my personal machine I was willing to write it off.
Now that it's happening on my brand new workstation I'm trying to figure it out.
What I find particularly strange is that my old AMD 990FX board had the exact same audio chipset as my Z170 board (Realtek ALC1150) so I don't think that's the culprit.
So tell me /g/, how hard did I get cucked by the jews? Also should I dig the hole even deeper and get a Schiit stack or maybe an X99/Haswell-E?
