Hi. I switched from a USB headphones to a headphones with a jack input and when I plugged it into my motherboard, there was a loud static noise. Normal sound comes, but it is hard to hear due to static crackling.
I've searched the internet, tried many methods such as deleting drivers, reinstalling, formatting, running system without a case (for grounding reasons).
However, none of them helped to fix the problem. So, I took out the motherboard and began to examine it. I found a few scratches where the audio drivers was. Scratches that probably occurred when removing from case and putting back while cleaning MB and GPU.
The rest of the computer is working fine, only the audio part has a problem. Could this is the cause of this problem or is there can be some other reasons? Because I'm thinking of sending it to warranty, they will probably say it's user error and send it back. But if there is another problem is it worth sending or not worth the hassle?
You can find the link of the photos here (there are 4 images)
If they don't accept the warranty, I'm thinking of having it repaired after-market repairs. I will use the Beyerdynamic DT 770 (80 Ohm) only with the motherboard. So, it is important for me that it does not lose its quality after repair. Can it lose?
An avarage soundcard exterenal/internal can save me? I probably can't afford a DAC/AMP cause I am a student.
