Interferance from Fiio E10K

My Fiio E10K has recently begun making electrical interference sounds, getting louder whenever I move the mouse. 

 

It started after my motherboard got surged a few weeks back, I've since got a new motherboard, CPU, RAM and case, yet the interference persists. I've tried it on my laptop and there is no interference at all, it also doesn't seem to happen when I use the line out on the E10K.

 

I'm really stumped, it only seems to be there on my desktop, even after changing most of the components. Is it possible it is the power supply? I'm using an old one after my AX750 broke (causing the surge that began this annoyance), it seems like the logical explanation except for the interference ramping up when I move the mouse.

 

Any help would be great, I'd rather not have to RMA another thing this month >.>

That sounds like your PSU giving bad quality electricity which is causing interference on your USB connections. So in reality it's not from your Fiio like your title suggests.

That's kinda what I was hoping for, I'm getting a new PSU shipped soon. Still don't understand why the E10K is the only output that seems to do it.
