  1. I get that part but i was unsure whether it will actually increase the sound levels of my mic and make it louder. I saw some posts online about amps etc. and there didnt seem to be any focus on mic amplifying only audio. I probably will purchase it but i just want to be clear it will amplify both audio and mic ?
  2. Hi, basically I have always had trouble with audio. Hearing static etc. but at this point i think its just normal. Anyways i got sick of using in ears to suppress the static and went with a headset. That headset being the hyperx cloud alpha. Im pretty happy with the headset overall but the mic is just a little too quiet and so is the audio. For example with everything turned up to 100 on inline,windows and CSGO it is just barely good enough to hear footsteps. I can also turn spotify up to 100 along with everything else and not even have to take off my headset. With the mic i find at peak its passable but still extremely quiet. With it turned up to 100 and only noise suppression on in windows its got this kind of static where i will talk and it goes up a little bit then goes back to base static (im assuming this is normal) I do use an audio splitter for the audio to have the option to plug in some in ears if i dont want to wear the headset. Sorry that was so long. anyways im looking to improve the audio and mic. Are dacs or amps a thing that could help ? is there any kind of hardware that will simply boost my audio and mic ? Any help is appreciated.
  3. I did say " If i go back to the youtube video i noticed it on its still there with or without hardware acceleration"
  4. I will take a look thanks for the help!
  5. Yeah that sounds good. Where exactly will i find if my card is in warranty ? I ordered it from amazon if thats any help
  6. Yeah im not really sure. I did run my card at absolute max settings on doom. Surely that would have flagged some errors ? I also tried more youtube videos and none of them had it. I thought i was going crazy and maybe the video itself actually had those effects in it (It was the ashton kutcher hot ones video at around the first bite) Idk if you know but they tend to edit in weird effects to simulate the spicyness effect. But no when i go to another browser or phone its not there. Games seem to work fine so i guess its a case of hoping it survives until black friday or smthn ?
  7. Hi, as the title says my GPU (GTX 1070 mini) seems to be artifacting while in chrome. specifically when watching youtube videos. After noticing this i went ahead and launched DOOM in ultra settings to see if it would work or artifact. Nothing. I played for a solid 20 minutes or so and my GPU hit 79 degrees. If i go back to the youtube video i noticed it on its still there with or without hardware acceleration. Also the drivers are up to date. Is this an early sign to start saving for a new GPU ? Any help is appreciated and i can answer any questions that would help understand more about this.
  8. So when I format into fat32 its not actually formatting to fat32 ? The file format option seems unlikely as it was onl an mp4 file i had on the drive. Also nuked as in the USB is broken ? Im not 100% on what "nuked" means
  9. Hi I have already tried formatting to FAT32, This doesnt fix it.
  10. As the title says i have a 32 GB USB i typically put movies on in the form of MP4 and MKV files. I also have the exact same type of USB but it is 64 GB in size. I used to put movies on the smaller USB and plug it into my old LGTV to watch them. It worked fine and all was well. One day as i was leaving to dog sit a family members house I copied over as many movies i liked as I can as they also have an older LGTV. As soon as i got there and from that point on of plugging it into their LGTV i have received the error "File or directory damaged: failed to read USB". The USB works perfectly on all PCs and when scanned for errors there is none. I have also tried formatting the drive to each type and plugging it into the TV again.Nothing. I am at a loss as what to do. if I google the error i get forum posts and questions that end up with the poster being ignored and a fix never being mentioned. Any help on what could possibly be wrong would be appreciated. Is it possible i removed the USB while it was still copying data and it somehow only damaged it in a way it wont work with the TV ? Thanks in advance for any replies.
  11. Hi i apologise for the long wait. I am unable to do the test as i had already returned the cloud 2 headset. Im at the point where i think im hearing a higher pitch noise than some people could hear. im aware how stupid that sounds. Im currently using an extension cable from the 3.5 jack and have my earbuds plugged into the extension. It seems to minimise the sound alot and i can barely hear it. I do have an old pair or razer headsets that i could try. One has the usb cable tangled up and if i move the headset at all the sound cuts out. The other has a snapped headphone holder so one side just dangles. In both i hear the static when the volume is turned above 70 in windows. I also hear ringing in the left side only of both headsets. If i open CSGO (the game i play most) i get no static until i click something on the menu and then the static plays for a solid 10 seconds like it did when i had he cloud 2s. I can post images of the inside of my pc if you would like or anything that may help. Im unsure if this noise is normal and i just happen to notice it alot more. Im also looking at purchasing cloud 2s again and trying it all over again to find the problem. Again sorry for the long wait i had some other things going on.
  12. Hi thanks for the reply. My setup is literally just an extension from the motherboard audio jack to the front of my pc and then i plug in my headphones. Im guessing its just a normal static and im just noticing it more (?). I really dont know. The best way i can explain the sound is if you go into sounds, right click your audio output and click test. After it plays the noise theres 1 or 2 seconds of static. Its like that but much more diminished.
  13. So i built my PC over christmas this year. I have learned so much about computers and such. I have upgraded my gpu and cpu cooler. overall im very happy with my PC. But since the start iv had this feeling with my motherboards audio. i started out with the old earphones in front jack setup. I decided to go get some new headphones for gaming. I went with the hyperx cloud 2 headset. Got it plugged in and noticed a small static from the audio. Since then iv had another 2 headsets which did not have the 7.1 surround extension the cloud 2s have. Im beginning to think im crazy. In all headphones while audio plays i feel like i hear a small static. when i watch youtubers i feel like i hear static from them. Is this just normal or am i experiencing a ground loop or something ? I bought a ground loop isolator and noticed the static was much more diminished but at the same time made the audio much quieter. I then noticed that if i change the realtek settings from 24 bit highest studio quality to 16 bit lowest cd quality the static is much worse. On the cd quality if i play any audio and pause it i get a loud static for around 10 seconds then it stops. Im just lost with this and really dont know what to do. is this small static normal from audio headphones ? Anyone iv asked to listen doesnt hear it but i definitely hear it both when in cd quality and with headphones on. really cant tell if its normal or what. Any help is appreciated.
  14. I am currently using the B450 tomahawk and it has no CPU_OPT. It does however have a pump_fan. Would you say this is actually a CPU_OPT simply with a different name ? If its a case of choosing between the splitter (having no rpm reading) and plugging each fan into the cpu and pump *and having a reading) id go with the second option.
