Here's the deal: Bought used laptop, audio and mic jacks are broken.
Using a USB mic produces a really obnoxious static when the laptop is charging. Makes talking to people over longer periods of time kinda hard.
Am now thinking about getting a small external soundcard with extra audio jacks. Question is, since that soundcard would be connected via USB, is it still gonna create static noise when the laptop is charging?

Depends on the soundcard. Why not just unplug your laptop?
