@boju , @Mandark . After 3 weeks of customer service , mobo and cpu were fine , no problem . got the pc back , installed all drivers correctly , tried to play games and chat with friends , got audio problem and buzzing , bought new headset , problem is back . Today i discovered that discord is crashing my whole pc sound .

Oh ok that's a shame. I don't use discord but im aware it has hardware acceleration settings. Did you try disable or enable that feature or other settings to do with sound in the program?

Anyhow if you choose to stay away from it, all good. Think there are other alternatives.

Games not playing sounds again, is that because discord was installed again?
I have no idea man , i will try to unistall it and open the games .
But me and a service support from a store helps me with my problem .
Note : is it normal for windows to detect my headphones as speakers?

Where is the headphones connected on the case? The rear green jack would be speakers. If you have front panel audio with a headphone jack that should give an option in realtek audio manager to set as headphones.

Speakers or headphones doesn't really matter, long as windows is set to stereo and not surround sound.
