Hallo guys,
I have been busy the last weeks to find the reason for a buzzing noise, that is coming from my speakers.
The sound card I am using is a Soundblaster Titanium HD, a card that I very much like. But if I connect my analogue line-out to my Marantz amplifier and start a demanding game (eg. RotTR, DXMD), it gives of really annoying buzzing sounds, that I do not encounter when I am using headphones. The intensity is not volume dependent, so if I turn up the volume quite much, the noise is overshadowed . The frequency is changing, depending on the graphics settings, like Vsync etc.
The PC and the amp are using different wall sockets.
The thing I suspected is, that the EMI from my GPU is causing this mess, but:
: why it doesent affect Headphones, wheather front or back IO
: using FurMark, the noise is much more subtle, not that "angry bee in your ear" sound
What could it be? Is my sound card broken? Or something completely different?
Cheers and thank you!
P.S.: I added a sound file of the sound. The silent part marks the loading screen.
