Headset interference?

[yourdad165]

When I play games and look around the frequency changes. It's basically an annoying high-pitches frequency changing noise depending on what I'm doing in the game. It's the most annoying thing ever once you start paying attention to it. It is not coming out of my PC so it is not a hardware coil whine issue. My old PSU did have a slight buzzing noise but I swapped it and it's fine now. I only hear it when I put on my headset and I've heard a name for it somewhere called "Electro-magnetic interference." I've heard that some solutions can be a dedicated sound card or a USB headset but is there anything else I can do?

 

Thanks in advance for any help. If I have to I will buy a standalone mic and some high-quality headphones which I actually already have. (Bose)

 

Edit: I have the Razer Kraken Pros and they use audio and mic jacks.

DOnt use input on front of your PC case . If u still gettting this using your rear end audio then your mobo is faulty.

That is where I'm getting the noise from. I don't think it's a bad motherboard, it's a Gigabyte Gaming 5 board.

EMI

 

If you've tried all the ports on your mobo already, and none are without the issue, best to get an external DAC to solve the problem. Syba DAC is cheap.

A sound card can't fix this problem or a new headset? I will go grab the Kraken 7.1s from my other PC and try them for a bit. They use USB rather than audio / mic.

Syba Dac is a soundcard tho, and it solves the EMI issue the only way you can.

Isn't it an external sound card though?

I recently had a similar problem and it turned out to be noise produced from having a wifi adapter plugged into the case USB (any of them, front or back).  Stuck it on the end of a USB extension cord and the problem went away.  I suspected my cordless mouse at first.  My cell phone makes detectable noise in the audio if it's close to the cabling or case too.  Wireless communication can cause all kinds of havoc.  Maybe try eliminating any wireless USB devices first?
