USB Mic Interference - Could Coil Whine Be The Culprit?
Okay, the cause of the problem has been determined. My new motherboard is faulty - which I simply didn't want to believe. But I now have definite proof.
After using a new power supply and new video card in the machine, I still had coil whine and still had the issue with my mic. Turns out my motherboard itself is experiencing coil whine and is therefore faulty.
Really sucks considering it's brand new. I didn't want to spend the money to upgrade just yet and simply got a motherboard with similar specs to replace what I already had. Oh well, everything else about it works, so I suppose I will just use my headset through my keyboard for now and just prepare for a full upgrade of motherboard, CPU and memory a few months down the line.
Thanks for all the help everyone!
