Hi, I recently built a new pc and all is great apart from nasty audio feedback! The crackle and pop, mouse movement, browser movement and REALLY bad when gaming.

I've tried to narrow it down and it seems to be coming from the PSU..

My setup
ASUS Z97-P
i5 4690k
Radeon RX 480
ACE Artic PSU
2x Rokit 6 speakers through RCA to 3.5mm motherboard jack

It happens in every audio port

Is it because I went cheap with the PSU or is it something simple?

It's driving me mad especial when wanting to game, it is SO LOUD lol

I have the exact same issue and our hardware is completely different the only thing we have in common is the RX 480 and thats exactly when the problem started for me. I doubt it's the PSU however my old one died 3 days ago and just popped in a new one and the static is persisting.
