If you can fix this, I am more than willing to gift someone £5 Steam Credit.
I'm hoping Toms hardware wizards can solve this.

Had this issue for well over a year now, Microsoft refuses to do anything about it, on any page, Reddit is stumped. I Havent been able to use a computer for Recreational Activities like games for a LONG time. Cyberpunk Certain engines crackle, Tarkov Supressed guns leave a pop in the audio at the end of firing, Ultimate admiral dreadnoughts the Ships guns crackle. Windows notifications both 11 and 10 crackle and pop and the end and middle. Youtube videos when changing pop. or changing audio levels crackles.

IM AT WITS END!
I think windows will become maybe a dead/Dying platform? due to this?


;Note the 5700G PC was mine, the 2600 was my friends. I upgraded to the 12600KF system to see if it was a AMD only issue. Wasted £1000+
I no longer own the 5700G PC and only the i5 System as of RN.
 
Formatting of the systems specs of the 3x Pcs have all converged I do apolagise. and currently on the I5 12600KF and 3060 12GB PC on windows 11.
