Here's the solution to your noisy computer lacking the RFI components:

The Corcom 6EF1 is available for about $13 shipped on eBay...less in
quantities or at hamfests.  I bought several for about $5 several years ago
to have on hand for computer RFI problems.  I used one which completely
cured a neighbor's whitebox computer that was generating birdies on 160m.
