I will either be in the 3950X or 3990X club this month. Depends on the work loads I take on and how we implement EPYC.

Sound crackling? I am having that since I put a Navi in my system. Switching to pice-3 from 4 fixed the sound issue.
Thank you watt matt, That would be great if it solves it for me, but I have a pciex4 nvme...
Tbh I solved the sound crackling by increasing the chipset voltage, but I still have the really weird microphone issue, which is.
Everything fine until I run a game and then it turns to a robotic chipmunk to any one I talk to in any program, even if I record myself it is like this,
Quit the game and all is normal again. This only started when I upgraded my 3900x to 3950x

Glad you found a fix.
How much did you increase Chipset voltage too?
I tried up to 1.150v, but I had boot issues if I went higher.
Was not able to find a workaround yet for my sound issue other than what I mentioned. Even stock memory and IF at 1800Mhz didn’t help.

I went to 1.125v and 1.050 on the other one.
My cracking came back, so going to try the pciex3 method you suggested
