So here's the situation. I've recently bought an Intel NUC box, DC32171YE to be exact. I originally had different intentions towards its usage but I finally decided to make it my primary desktop machine. So I've bought a PHILIPS 274E 27 inch LED display and wow... amazing. So far I haven't been using such a large screen, and it's... awesome And the whole setup is so compact, I've mounted the NUC on the back of the monitor as Intel sells the NUCs with the so called VESA bracket.
Ubuntu has been running great an everything has been working out of the box so far. It's cool that I could use the embedded speakers in the monitor, and I only need an HDMI cable from the NUC.
The only downside I'v noticed as noted on the title is... a strange buzzing sound from the monitor! It's almost not noticeable when I listen to a music, and at certain brightness and contrast settings I can hear it all the time. Now the brightness and contrast are set so that there's not buzzing sound. But still when the image on the display is mostly dark and intense, I can still hear it!
Have you guys experienced something like this? Like I mentioned, the monitor has build in speakers... could it be that there's an interference from the monitor circuity to the speakers, or it's something in the monitor itself failing?
The good part is that I've just bought the monitor, and it's still under warranty. It's a kind of a rethorical question I guess... but should I ask for a replacement? It may sound as an odd... but when I don't listen to any music and just reading, it could get quite annoying.
