could you move the soundcard to another PCI slot, and see if that changes anything? |

Seen this happen before. |
|
I don't really think it has anything to do with the soundcard. Afterall, it is the gfx that's screwing up. |

Well, you said you "traced the problem to the GFX card". Can you elaborate on how you did that? |
|
Linux has it's own gfx drivers too, I would still try Linux Live. |
|
If I remove the GFX card, the sound disappears, and if I listen to the different components, by putting my ear next to them, it's clearly coming from the GFX. I've tried removing both case fans, harddisks and audio card. I've positive, that it's coming from the GFX. |

First off, don't skimp on the PSU. Overkill is good, because a 700W PSU will only use 300W if that's all your system needs, so it doesn't waste power (actually saves some usually, since higher quality PSU's are more efficient), and you have a good deal of cushion. No-name brands are BAD. |

I have no other PCI-E graphicscard around, and the only PCI card I have, doesn't work |

Well, it's not required, but it would help trace the problem. |
