xbit Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Recently my system has started to omit a buzzing sound from my speakers. It only happens or I only seem to notice it when gaming (wow, borderlands 2, etc). I've tried to reproduce it during an MSI benchmark test using MSI Kombustor 2.5 with sound but i can't reproduce it unless I'm in a game. The 'buzz' sounds like if your speaker cable was not plugged in correctly or if you touch metal. My games won't lock up, or the computer does not freeze but I do think it will jitter ever so briefly. I'm using the motherboards sound card at the moment. This issue happends if I'm using headphones or if I use my computer speakers. This is a new system (about a month old) and I haven't really made any changes when this started to happen other than testing out some overclock settings, nothing very aggressive at all, all within safe-zone specks. Any idea? PSU? MB? VID? My system info is below. My next step in troubleshooting will be to disable the MO sound and use the vid cards sound. Some have said its probably coil noise coming from your graphics card. Happens on some cards when load is high or FPS is high. i.e. But my issues is not an ongoing buzz like in this youtube. mine is a quick "bzzt" and then it stops. also, I set my games and config for the card itself to ON for vsync and its still bzzt'ing.
