I wasn't sure what category to post this under becaus I'm not even sure what the problem is. I recently built a new PC and everything was a little sketchy but working fine until I plugged in my Logitech G430 USB headset. It was staticky and then it would just cut out. I installed the Logitech drivers, Realtek drivers, motherboard drivers, and it still does it. In the beginning it would just turn to aboute garbage static and I couldn't hear anything but now it seems to just be right before audio plays and on the higher volume sections of audio. I've tried with other headphones like Beats and I get the same thing. Any help would be appreciated.

(side note I have been trying to fix this for days. I've tried changing my minimum CPU in the power options to 100%, I've tried drivers, I've tried plugging straight into the motherboard. Nothing has worked for me so far.)


If it helps here's my motherboard:
ASUS Z170-A LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Intel
