IIRC according to gwern the theory that IQ variation is mostly due to mutational load has been debunked by modern genomic studies [though mutational load definitely has a sizable effect on IQ]. IQ variation seems to be mostly similar to height in being the result of the additive effect of many individual common allele variations.
