Exactly, when they're designing average motherboards with integrated sound, they seldomly take interference from surrounding components seriously.
On quality motherboards, things like IDE and RAM slots are located strategically (farther away from possible interference sources).
The chipset itself can suck too sometimes, like VIA's early-production (I prefer Nvidia-based when I need a mobo with integrated stuff).
It could just be that you don't have the microphone loopback output muted... that one usually gives a nefarious humming/buzzing.
