    HD Audio Header - Buzzing/Interference w/microphone via headsets

    No, it's not just noisy like it's getting some small EM interference. It's a fully clipped buzz, like actual voltage on the pins, the kind of thing that may actually fry the codec chip. It's definitely a major defect. I've used many front panel jacks before and sure, some are noisy picking...

    HD Audio Header - Buzzing/Interference w/microphone via headsets

    I'd like to report that I have the exact same issue as the OP. Headphones work great, but TRRS headset the mic brings in a loud buzzing noise. I've tried re-running the HD-audio cable from the front panel in hopes to avoid any kind of EM interference. I believe the front panel to be defective...

    My plan is to buy this and this, and splice them together at the exact length I need.

    Reverse Ncase Power Cable

    you could use that adapter (although it might be too tall to fit under the case top panel). but if you connect the existing internal power cable provided by ncase, you will still have the undesired right angle connected to the adapter. the best thing would be a custom internal power cable with...

    Reverse Ncase Power Cable

    I'm in the same predicament. Actually right angle left isn't ideal either, "right angle up" towards the back of the case would be best. Like this image.

    GPU coil whine can sometimes be fixed by replacing the power supply, also a power conditioner or true sine wave UPS on the mains.

    List of Mini-ITX/DTX motherboards with a Key A header (for front panel USB C)

    I was thinking of combining a 20 pin y cable with the A-key adapter to have USB3 on all front ports.

    NCASE M1 V6 info

    My front IO panel came with two little dents along the bottom edge. Anyone else have this issue? Still trying to decide if I care enough to raise a ticket.

    9900k in Ncase M1

    I'm late to the party here. I was tweaking with my 9700k c14s (Asrock Z390, 2060super) in a mATX case while I waited for my Ncase M1 to arrive. I found I would hit 99c with Prime95 Small FFT, and I also thought something was wrong. While gaming it would sit in low 80c. I also found Powermax...

    Install nh-c14s on motherboard outside or inside case?

    Hi there, don't have my ncase yet. Wondering your opinion on installing a nh-c14s on my asrock z390itx before or after putting the mobo in the case? I can see that if I do it before it will be easier to install the heatsink, but obviously harder to install the mobo with a giant heatsink on it.

    Ncase M1 cooling - 120mm fans under the GPU

    cool thread. I've got a gigabyte 2060 super (dual fan windforce). I was thinking of replacing the heatsink with accelero iii and using two A12x25 fans under it. The card isn't that long, not sure if the accelero would do the job..
