 I agree, it's always the cables :-)
For sure the last time I had to fix a similar noise issue. it was definitely the cables.

 What else is plugged into your power strip that lowers everything?

Got floor lanterns or desk lamps? Those are bad. New hard drive? Shitty new USB cable somewhere?

The whole circuit contains a lot of paths.  It’s always the cable.
