Recently I rebuilt my PC - bitfenix Merc Alpha case, gigabyte GA-F2A75M board, AMD A5800 chip and pretty standard DVD-Writer. 

There is interference noise bleeding into the sound.

Regardless of whether I use front or read 3.5" sound out, or sound out via a USB dongle, there is noise.

I've relocated the transceiver from the wireless keyboard (Logitech variety), and that's made little or no difference.

The power supply is new but no-name brand.

So I'm left wondering where's the next step? it bugs me to hear it.

Do you have or can borrow another power supply for comparison? That is easy.

Maybe post the system spec. Btw if mb is faulty it will be replaced under warranty for this issue.

It will be. Speakers are grounded to the PC back thru the USB cable, Monitor is thru the displayport/dvi/whatever cable shield.

When on the cellphone charger then its isolated from the PC earth so no ground loop happens. There will be a ground difference between the audio socket and the other sockets making the loop happen, inducing the noise to the speakers.
