Crackling headphones

Hello.

Since I connected my headphones to my desktop PC, there is a very slight buzzing (coming from the earphones) that continues. (It often stops for a few minutes)

The issue might be with my headphones, but I don't experience this problem when using my laptop.

And no matter how much I turn down the volume, the noise persists. Whether I set the volume to 5 or 50 doesn’t make any difference to the noise.

When I restart the PC, the noise only stops right when it shuts down, and it starts again as soon as the "Windows startup" screen appears.

Thank you.

    Damn, when I start a game the noise is even more shrill and unbearable...

    Am I really forced to change my headphones, or could the problem be coming from somewhere else? x_x

    I want to clarify that the sound itself is fine.
    It's even very good, but no matter what I do, whether I mute it or not, there's always the same background buzzing... (which intensifies when I launch a game, as mentioned)

    Thank you.

      Change your headphones; it's the best solution, and ask a seller to see which ones are the most suitable for your computer.

      Thank you. But that's exactly it, it's a no-name PC, so do I have to give it the name of my motherboard?

      No, bring him your computer and he'll tell you which brand to choose and which one is the most suitable.

      Well, given the weight of the laptop, I'm going to avoid bringing it with me to the store ._.

      Then take the references of Lordi, the brand, and show them to the seller, and he will be able to advise you.
