Frank,
Good point. Thank you. Changing the sample-rate may do it. I fear it's

still gonna sound crappy even compared to my on-board nvidia sound. I'll

try it though.
So, if i were to get a higher-end sound card like an RME that might be

shielded enough to avoid the fan hums? I'm gonna get things as quiet

inside my case as possible, but i'll need *some* fans even if they are

large and slow.
