A simple check would be either by getting a socket tester "search on Amazon" or if you have a multimeter laying around in your house you can use it to test "Ground to Neutral" and "Ground to Live" Potential Difference. There's numerous Youtube Video Tutorials on how to do that, but ultimately please do contact an electrician to be safe, make sure the electrician has a ground resistance checking device too.Slender wrote: ↑14 Feb 2022, 10:50I am perfect 0 in electricity, how to check the grounding?Thatweirdinputlag wrote: ↑13 Feb 2022, 17:26
There will always be some sort of current leakage into the case itself, thats why the case is always grounded through the power supply. If you do not have a grounding pin in your AC Mains outlet, the case itself will continuously have a live current on it, nothing dangerous, but sometimes enough to shock causing discomfort "depending on how bad the power supply and the leakage that is happening". If there is enough current running through it 24/7 "I.E no ground", the case's electricity field will start effecting other components inside it with its magnetic field. Probably why you are seeing weird graphs with your mouse, and probably why the graph isn't F'ed anymore when the case was removed from the equation.
Your case can ground itself through the DP or HDMI cable too btw, given that your monitor is properly grounded, heck you can use an audio interface as ground path if it is powered through a grounded outlet and not powered through the PC since the USB connection between the audio interface and the PC will carry ground.
Now, if you have grounding and you still had these issues, then try to lift the ground from all the power cables going into the wall socket but one. I'd pick the one to keep to be the PC's Power supply, since your PC will be producing the most EMI and have the most current going through it. I'm saying this because you might've been experiencing a ground-loop. People say it's okay to ground everything to the same socket, but that ground socket also needs to have less than 2Ohm "the standards over grounding" resistance to the ground otherwise it might actually create a different voltage potential within the power extension itself.
Also keep in mind that all of this is just speculation at this point.
