I recently got this headset, and wow is it good. My only issue is when certain people talk on discord, I can hear a really high pitched ringing. I fiddled with a bunch of settings, computer audio and discord, and nothing seems to solve the issue. It is primarily if not all in my right ear only. Is there something wrong with my headset, or was that ringing always there I can just hear it cause the headset is THAT good? I haven't had any issues with any other application, though I have yet to test if I can hear the ringing on a different version of discord, say on my xbox instead of my pc. Only other issue I've had is occasional static, but I can't tell if it's from the headset or the show/game/etc.

Try experimenting with different outlets and power strips. What happens if you plug your speakers into a different power strip on the opposite outlet of your main power strip? If that doesn't change anything, then what happens if you plug your speakers into an entirely different outlet on the wall? If the noise goes away, it means you have a ground loop. To solve that while keeping your current power strip setup, you would need to buy a "ground loop isolator" that has the connectors you need.
If the noise doesn't go away regardless of different outlet/power strip setups, then that means your computer has a noisy DAC and you need to buy an external one.
