Hyperx Cloud Core popping sound

[khris007]

Lately I have noticed that there is a popping sound that I hear while listening to music, gaming, etc... I bought my Hyperx Cloud core about 3 months back and up until now haven't had any problems. Thank you in advance for any advice regarding this issue.

Specs:

Os: Windows10 Home 64 bit
Gpu: Nvidia geforce gtx 1060 6gb
Cpu: Intel Core i7 6700k
Motherboard: Asus z170 pro gaming
Audio Driver: Realtek High Definition Audio, Nvidia High Definition Audio
Headset: Hyperx Cloud Core gaming headset

I think it's a bad motherboard audio chip etc....
However you can plug a PCI audio sound card in...whatever to replace the audio on the board..
or get a different board.

Thanks for your help, I looked around online and saw other people having this issue with asus boards. I will probably go the route of a pci sound card. Any suggestions as to which one I should get.
