windows 10 lenovo desktop pc
i just set up this pc and it has a strange issue where theres a buzzing background sound. ive tried plenty of stuff but idk what to do.
depending what im using the pitch of the buzzing changes, if i use nothing its a low pitched buzz, if i use blockland its a high pitched buzz, and what i noticed
while playing blockland is that when i looked at alot of bricks, the pitch was high, when i looked at nothing, the pitch was lower. i think its tied to how much
the computer is processing? please help i have no clue what to do ive tried plenty just reccomend things and ill try it

the fan???
wait im lost, what are you asking? what do you mean "what to do?" do you think there's something wrong with the computer?

theres absolutely something wrong with the computer
i forgot to mention its coming from the speakers/headsets not the actual computer

Are you using the rear audio inputs or the front audio inputs? Some front audio ports will have static sound coming from them due to it not being shielded properly; The static you're hearing could be from your other PC parts interfering with the front audio port

My old PC case was an NZXT Phantom and it had this issue with the front audio port. The rear audio port was fine though

im using front port. will test tomorrow. it seems like other junk interfering because of how depending how much the pc has to render/run/etc it changes the buzzing

plug your damn speakers into the rear port, front ports can cause interference and degrade quality causing the buzz

if you get the same experience using the back ports, you can buy a USB sound card where static/buzzing will be reduced by a lot as the sound card is instead completely outside of the computer, and is generally shielded more

check if there are any audio devices or microphone devices enabled that are playing back audio


i say this because i have my Line-In plugged into one of my monitors which i switch between using my nintendo switch and pc, and i have it play back so i can hear audio from my switch through my pc, but if i open something like blockland it makes the exact same high pitched buzzing noise you're having. (which i use a custom audio driver to just switch the input off)
