How do I ground my mic/PC, I just bought some Razer Kraken Pros and they are having this humming noise. I know they are not supposed to sound like a studio quality mic but I expect them to at least not have static/white noise. I have noticed that every time I touch my metal computer case the hum goes away. I'm guessing its stoping because i'm grounding the mic/PC. So now I need to figure out how to do it without having to have my hand on my case all the time.
 
Solution
Are you plugging it in to the rear or front panel of your PC? If the front panel connector to the audio has reversed (+ to - and - to + (it should be + to + and - to -)) that could happen.
