A lot of Electrical Interference with rear audio output.
I have recently baught a Slate MRBB973 and while it's been great, the rear audio gets a lot of electrical interference whenever I try to play any games or browse the internet. This issue doesn't seem to happen with the front audio output, but I'd like to have both of them work if possible. I've tried different speakers and wires, and headsets, but they all have the same problem.
Are there any suggestions for how to eliminate or at least reduce EMI?

Try using a different electrical outlet (or plug straight into the wall if you're using a power strip), just to see if the issue goes away. Since that can tell you if the ground loop is internal in the PC or somewhere external.
Usually if there is a ground loop issue for audio on the PC, either the PSU or MB needs to be changed to really fix it.
