I did some googling, and apparently many people have reported audio crackling/popping with 3070s. I don’t know what your issue is in particular, but I would encourage you to look into MSI vs MSI-X interrupts, see if perhaps the audio part of your GPU driver isn’t using them.
This is old and is talking about running in a VM, but the core bits about checking if MSI-X interrupts are on and turning them on should still apply. https://forums.unraid.net/topic/55011-solved-how-to-make-linux-guest-enable-msi-function-on-the-gpu-audio-device/
Also worth checking is that you have resizable BAR enabled. Run
nvidia-smi -q -x
And look for bar1_memory_usage to be over 256MB
Yeah, so did I
If you plug the monitor into a different device (NSwitch, BD-player, Fire stick) does it stop crackling?
The first board mount (actually through-board case mount) I recall seeing were HP socket 478. That horror-show of a socket also saw many plastic retention clip implementations that had a tendency to get brittle and crack. Socket 423 (which came before) had the same plastic junk mounts.
