Hello.

My HyperX Cloud's mic is great, has great quality, excepting the electricity/static noises in the background.

Here's a test: (just click and play, not needed to download anything; the quality has been decreased by the site by 50%. In reality that static noise and my voice are crisper and clearer, but the main problem is the static noise)

Are they caused by the simple fact that I use an USB sound card?

I can hear that noise in my headphones too, it's like they are constatly receiving that sound, but I can bare it and don't even pay attention to it after 30 seconds.
During playing games or listening to music I can't hear it at all.

But the interferences that appear on the background of my microphone are just bad.

Any idea, guys?
