I am debating upgrading my PC with a better CPU setup, because recently i have been troubleshooting an audible ring that is feeding into any amplified speaker setup i plug into the computer, i even went as far as installing an old audio card i had in my old PC into my current pc with no luck. The noise is annoying, because i had a really nice set of speakers with sub that i can't use, so i have come to the conclusion that my motherboard is possibly messed up, because i can plug the same amplified speakers into my phone, tablet, and old pc without any ring.
I thought about keeping my current CPU and just buying another compatible motherboard, but i have found since upgrading to a 4k primary monitor, that my CPU usage struggles a lot even though my GPU usage is not really changed much
