I tried the RS ferrites and they made no change. I even took barbell weights

Ferrites clamped around the power cable will help with common-mode RF
noise. They won't do anything to help cancel out differential-mode
noise.

It'd probably be beneficial for you to try to get a robust powerline
noise filter. These will filter out both common-mode noise, and
differential noise as well.

Unfortunately, it's possible that the new power supply is radiating RF
directly, rather than feeding it back into the mains. If so, nothing
other than replacing it, or switching to a PC case with better
shielding, is likely to help the problem.
