Hey guys
Some of you (like Dai) may have seen this post from last year. This is a performance related issue which I thought was solved. But it's not and I'm determined to find the answer for it.
My computer is a custom built computer with the following parts: (For your reference)
CPU - Intel Core i5 650
Motherboard - Gigabyte Technology P55A - UD3
DDR3 16Gs of Ram
Video card - Radeon HD 5670
700W Corsair power supply
What it is:
Last year, I had this really annoying Static noise/buzzing on the interface of my computer. We’re going to call it buzzing in this article. It sounds like a digital TV antenna that’s having a lot of trouble trying to find a signal when you have your TV on. The noise it makes it what it sounds like on my computer.
Along with the buzzing, there’s a freeze. A consistant 1 second freeze. All games, programs, applications freeze for 1 second consecutively. Even the movement of the mouse freezes. The sound on the speakers become distorted when a audio file is played. It freezes so frequently that games become unplayable.
How does it start happening?
So... lets say I shutdown the computer for the night. Next morning I turn it on and use it all day. Until the next I time I shutdown the computer, it runs smoothly. Nothing goes wrong.
If I put the computer on sleep and turn it on the next morning, In 20 minutes, the static buzz starts occurring.
How do I temporarily get rid of it?
I restart my computer and it’s gone.
Down below is an example of the static buzzing. First demonstration is the movement of my mouse. Then a game. (Make sure you turn your speakers up temporarily to really hear the buzz)

Seriously, I shouldn’t have to keep rebooting my computer to get rid of this buzz. I want to make it so, whether I shutdown or sleep the computer that this buzzing will stop occurring.
Attempts:
I strongly believe it’s a part of the computer. Or even the motherboard.
What part the computer is most likely to cause the kind of buzzing above? Why does it do this when I put this on sleep? Can any of you, recommend what piece I could change which might get rid of it?
If this was your computer, what would you do or replace?

Attempts:
- Last year I replaced my power supply. I jumped from a 550W to a 650-700W (Can’t remember)
The freezing stopped for a while. But then, it returned. Now, it’s coming to a point where, I shutdown my computer and turn it back on and then once during the day it will start doing the above.
- So we know now that it’s NOT the power supply. I’ve checked temperatures and they are fine, according to some technicians.
- It's not BIOS. I updated from F8 to F11 and it still occurs.
I strongly believe it’s a part of the computer. Or even the motherboard.
