i have a problem with my motherboard sound, both on board and front panel were broken

i cant hear anything except noisy sound, it's like when u turn on a radio but lost the signal

in device manager is written "working properly", so it's not driver problem

i did everything, re-installed os, reset bios, uninstalled driver, scanned for the latest driver, disabled driver

 

so i dont want to waste my money before i know what the problem is

i bought cheap 5 usd : usb sound and pci sound

 

i thought the problem was fixed, because i heard any sound like normal

but the problem is when i set volume to maximum, i can hear the noisy sound from this motherboard, i cant disable it, it sounds so annoying, it hurts my ears

i dont think by buying expensive usb or pci sound will fix the problem

actually at 50% volume i still hear the noisy sound, but at 100% volume, it hurts my ears

I once had an issue with my sound (no sound at all whatsoever) and the solution ended up being to update the bios... you could try that too. A reinstall of Windows might have also helped - perhaps if you have a spare drive to install a burner Windows install on (you don't need a key for the first 30 days) you could try if the problem still occurs there. Or perhaps make a Linux USB stick first and try it there, that might be quicker. If this doesn't help, I fear it might indeed be your motherboard. If so, a USB to 3.5mm adapter might help, or perhaps try to get audio via your monitor (HDMI and Displayport take audio too, via your GPU!).
