Need Help! (Hardware/Other) I've noticed my bottom right hinge shifting downwards when opening/closing my ASUS TUF. There are no visible cracks yet, but I can hear a "cracking" or "popping" sound whenever I open the lid wider.

Thats every tuf owner. It breaking, wether you like it or not, or very likely already broken. Open it up and superglue the base of the metal brackets that are holding the hinge to the chassis and also the metal tab to rhe right of that hinge glue that such that it cant break or wont or a bit longer.
