Buzzing sound from speakers/headphones ONLY in WoW
I’m experiencing weird buzzing sound that’s coming from speakers or headphones unless I play through bluetooth - it’s not always buzzing tho, but 8/10 times it does. It only happens it World of Warcraft, it gets more noticeable while doing certain activities in game like opening character panel etc, if i alt+tab it’s less noisy. No it’s not coil whine, no it’s not related to too high FPS - i tried at uncapped so 150-200, locked 30, 60 and so on and problem still exist. Any ideas? Not like it’s unplayable but rather annoying.
So here are things that aren’t issue of my problem as I’ve checked it already.
It’s not related to windows sound settings as I’ve tried everything available there.
It’s not drivers issue - everything is up to date.
It’s not caused because of addons.
It’s not external program issue.
It’s not hardware issue as same problem existed on previous rig.
It’s not speakers or headphones issue because they’re working everywhere else without that issue.
It is not coil whine
It’s not overclock issue
It’s not overheating issue (cpu doesn’t exceed 55-60C, gpu sits at 60-65C)
If needed PC specs:
R5 3600 (oc’ed)
Aorus RX580 8GB
Ripjaws V2x8GB RAM
MSI X470 Gaming Plus Max
Bitfenix Whisper M 650W
Headphones are Bose QC35 II with newest firmware, and speakers are dunno, some 10yrs old speakers.
This sadly isn’t a WoW issue, but a hardware one, so outside the scope of support we can provide.
I can suggest though that you enable vsync to stabilize frame rate. Another cause of audio whine can be power supply noise/load balancing, which your PSU features. How this is managed by the PSU varies between models, please check with your manufacturer on management of this.
