I have got a headset that has a slight feedback buzz in the back ground when i have the included usb sound card in, but when i use the headphone jack with out the usb there is no feedback buzz. So is there an amp or something that i can use my headset and the mic through the single head phone jack??
 
would this happen to be the hyper x cloud? if yes i thought they fixed this issue, guess not.
-you could however try using a powered usb hub (one that plugs into the wall) to eliminate ground loop noise or you could try a usb ground loop isolator.

are you using a laptop? (is that why you only have one headphone jack alone)?
-on laptops with mic+headphone support in one jack they are generally 4 pole (4 parts to the 3.5mm plug). you can adapt to 2x 3pole jacks from this using a simple adapter cable. you could also get an external soundcard. keep in mind if its a ground loop problem internal to your pc, you could still have issues with a usb soundcard

if its not a laptop, they make internal soundcards.
 


do you think you could show me a decent but not to exspensive one. its annoying because i would like to keep the 7.1
 
if you want to not use the provided soundcard just get a soundcard which has virtual 5.1./7.1 support and ignore the usb soundcard provided.

something like the creative omni would work. even the portable xonar u3 or creative go sticks would likely work.

of course assuming the issue is the usb soundcard and not a form of ground loop or noise on the usb ports.

if you laptop has enough power to get sound out of the headphones fine (test this) and the mic sounds fine on it.. you could just bypass the usb soundcard completely and use razers free virtual surround program to get your 5.1/7.1
