HP Recommended
Product: Pavilion x2 12-b100
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I just bought the Pavilion x2, and i'm extremely happy with it. I've found a flaw though, i don't know if it's a defect in my unit or in every one. Whenever I use the computer, as simple as just scrolling in chrome or even moving the mouse, there is this static noise in my earbuds. This is incredible annoying, as i want the sound as pure as it should be. I've spent hours searching and found many people with similar problems. Some people fixed it by switching aux port from front to back (but i only have one on my pc). I also saw people blaming it on a poorly made audio jack, some blamed it on a grounding issue, some said it came from the psu.

 

I've read a lot, and i'm clueless, so I'd really appreciate any help i could get. (I'm the only one in my family who hears it as well, both my parents can't hear a thing)

 

I've also noticed that it might seem that it runs in tact with my processor usage, as when it gets higher (mostly when it passes 10%). I don't know if it's random or could be connected.

 

This also mostly happens in third party software, such as chrome and spotify. Doesn't make much static when scrolling through the task manager or settings for instance
