Hello everyone !
a month ago I built a new computer, those are its components:
COOLERMASTER Hyper 212 EVO
INTEL Core i5 4670K
MSI Z87-G43
8 Gb DDR3 CORSAIR Vengeance
1000 Go - WD Blue - 7200 Tr/min - SATA 6 Gb/s - 64 Mo - Bulk - WD10EZEX
MSI R9 280X GAMING 3G - Radeon R9 280X - 3 Go - PCI-E
Corsair CX Bronze 600 Watts - 80+ Bronze
My sound card is a Presonus AudioBox 22VSL and I have a pair of home studio speakers (ESI Near 05).
Everything works fine, but when I play to 3D games there is a noise that, according to what I have read and heard on the net, it is a ground loop. I have tried several things to find from where the problem could come, I have tried to change the speakers and the audio cables, I have updated the drivers of every component, I have tried to disable the IRQ's of the computer... The noise is still there.
■ I have tried to change the graphic card for the one integrated in the processor and the noise disappears. But of course, it is not a solution.
■ When I listen with headphones I don't hear the noise. I don't think the problem comes from the speakers because I tried with different ones.
■ The wire that connects the PSU it's grounded, I changed the one that came with the new case with one that I had before and I noticed that the noise was dimmed. (Good news ) But the problem isn't solved yet, there's still noise.
■ Apart from the noise, in some games I see horizontal lines in the screen, I see them more when I am in dark places.
Here are a sample of the noise and a video of the lines in the screen (it is a bit hard to see them):

Could someone give me a clue of how could I solve this problem?
Thank you so much!
