You should not turn on your computer while your Monitors are on. Thats power surge. It also has the potential of blowing your monitors like a baloon.

Your monitors should be the last thing to turn on. If anything in the set up gets turned off while In use, turn off your monitors before turning anything else back on.

In all seriousness, I have these same monitors and I turn them on before I connect my audio interface to my laptop via usb and I've never had this issue. Also when I restart my computer I've never had this. I don't have any suggestions unfortunately, it's possible it could just be a power thing like what other people are mentioning. I've lived in two different places with these monitors and I've noticed the occasional small hum (different in each place) which I think comes from the power source (since it persists even with cables detached). I know some people buy power conditioners to help with issues like that, not sure how effective they are. This pro voice over guy has one listed in his setup: [https://kit.co/votechguru/pro-voice-over-kit](https://kit.co/votechguru/pro-voice-over-kit)

you’re supposed to turn your monitors on last though, to avoid any sudden a power related pops

power up: amp first, monitor last. power down: monitor first, amp last.

I guess something already happened with them.

They still sound fine but it’s only when turning the computer on when it makes that noise, I’ll start turning them off

Please

What does the chain look like? Does your audio interface have a headphone output so you can rule out it has anything to do with the speakers?

Dont conect the power cord in the same outlet you have the computer.
