DSP issues after updating Samp ProX7

I am having severe issues with DSP spikes all of a sudden after installing an update to ProX7. One Kontakt instrument and one plugin will cause a dsp reading of up to 200% max. I have an ok computer that should handle way more than this and usually does. This has happened once before (probably on samp5) but went away when I bought and installed a new version.

Is Magix forcing people to update and pay for a new version or are my system settings incorrect?

I am running the RME Hdsp MadiFX pcie card and have multicore support at 4.

@aglith Limit the number of CPU cores in the Samplitude system settings and in the Kontakt settings. Try a lower number like 4-6 cores (looks like you already did that?)

It can also be caused by graphics card drivers. Some users reported problems caused by Nvidia drivers.

Let's say its a driver conflict with nvidia, what on earth could be done?

Also, when using Kontakt 7 standalone application the DSP is less than half compared to opening one instance of Kontakt 7 in Samplitude ProX7 playing the same patch and nothing else (and with crazy spikes).

I have multicore support off in Kontakt and on 4 in Samplitude. I tried having multicore support on in Kontakt as well but that did not change anything. Also it was not recommended to have both on at the same time by SampX7.
