Hi, I've set up my new gravel bike and on the small cogs it makes a lot of noise around the cassette, not the derailleur. I'm not sure if it's the cassette or the chain.
My setup is a Senicx PR3 crankset with a Goldix 42t chainring with 0mm offset, and the cranks have a 49.7mm chainline. The cassette is a Goldix MTB cassette for a 12v XD freehub, 10-51t, and is mounted on an XDR freehub with a 1.85mm spacer behind the cassette. The chain is an original SRAM GX 12v chain and a GEX wheeltop derailleur.
Can you tell me what it could be? If it's normal or if I need to change something?

First thing I’d check is the H limit screw. The derailleur might be sitting too far inward.
nice freehub sound! you don’t show a view from the front where the chain can be seen coming off the cassette – it might be that your chainline is too far inboard and the chain is rubbing off it’s bigger neighbour as it leaves the cassette and heads towards the crankset.
