kayanya emang bener nih…
gua curiga noise pada STX bisa timbul kalau dicolok molex PSU abal2
berarti emang ga ada noise ya?
soalnya saya sendiri ga ngerasain noise,
itu soundcard made in china, yang made in taiwan lebih mahal 200k, beda di noisenya, taiwan katanya lebih bersih dari noise
tapi made in taiwan ini sendiri ga kerasa noisenya
paling fatal ya vokalnya, feelingnya ilang…
Mau test di headphone gw? Dateng aja ntar waktru mo ambil u test aja… ga gitu kerasa sih…
Atau mungkin gw sendiri ga ngerti NOisenya yang mana
