Very low audio with motherboard/hdmi monitor

[Witski]

so as the title say my audio is very low (everything maxed),i have to use external speakers (with headphones) to crank up the audio,is not a problem but this old big box have like a radio zzzzt continuosly that sometimes bother me (is not noticeable if i play or listen something a bit ) so there is a problem or my audio devices sux hard? i kinda want to know if i can repair that,i don't want to use equalizer programs because they don't change the volume by much without messing the audio

mobo : ASRock 960GM-GS3 FX
Monitor : Benq E2200HD (old with only vga,now im using a vga to hdmi connector for my future rx 590 until i get a new monitor)
Also if i use a wireless bluetooth earphone the audio is a LOT louder (it's a goot small earphone ) only the jack 3.5 have problems i think

did you buy new headphones, or did this just randomly start happening?

Monitor speakers are usually only around 1-4 watts maximum anyways, even at everything on 100% volume, many things will sound fairly low.

Just stick to using 3.5mm audio from the Motherboard onboard audio via speakers or headphones.

Which motherboard model are you using as this will dictate the onboard audio. And which model of headset?

(in case you didn't see)

i use a 30 euro philips headset(very good ones)
and something chinese Saatchitech with a microfone for 15 euro (worse than the philips even the microphone(the reason i buy those) )

But every headphone that i plug into the moba have this low sound,instead on my phone works great expecially the philips one,the chinese one sux on my phone too(no surround bass low audio etc)

On the cheap you could just buy usb sound card / adapter.

Such as what comes with various Logitech or HyperX headsets.

This will use its own chip instead of the Motherboard onboard audio

mh i was thinking to buy those equalizer things but they are expansive,i didn't know about these,ill check them,thanks :)

What is expensive?

A usb dongle is cheap.

[Witski]

i mean devices like soundblasters and such (the big ones)

[Bad 💀 Motha]

All that should be needed for an improvement over crappy onboard audio that old boards offered is a cheap usb audio dongle that has 3.5mm line out and mic in on it.

Nothing fancy needed.

If wanted something better, look at Usb dac+amp

i think ill pass that buy, anyway ill change the moba in the future for a new cpu, but thanks anyway, if i see one of those dongles for cheap in some stores ill try one :)
