Hello all, I recently purchased M-Audio BX5 D2 speakers as a step in upgrading my audio. When connecting the speakers to the rear 3.5 mm on the motherboard I am getting constant noise coming from the speakers.
Different frequencies and tones appear when moving the mouse or using the PC in general. I am running a Maximus VIII Hero board.
I had no issues running my soundbar via optical from the motherboard and the speaker work fine via other sources (phone for example).
Will a soundcard fix this issue or would I be better buying an amp that will take optical in and feeding the speakers via the amp?
Any help appreciated.
