Speaker static sounds even after changing the speakers.

I recently got static noise from the speakers so I thought they were bad so I replaced them with new ones. Problem is it's still doing it so I then tried changing out the audio jack as well for a new one and it's still spewing a piercing static noise. I tried switching between mono and stereo. I tried using headphones and it's weird because the same static comes through the headphones as well. I tried plugging it into a sound system. I feel like I've tried everything. Is there a component I can test that might be the issue? What to do?

Hi Skorgle!

Oh my.. It sounds like that audio IC is failing and will die soon.

Best thing to do is to check/replace the Realtek ALC5639 (audio IC).

It's soldered on the motherboard.
