Solved by Light-Yagami,
The clicking sound you hear is probably just coil whine. It happens. It can be bothering, but in my experience, it can go away with bios updates.. my dell xps 9700 had that issue and it got fixed with a bios update this summer.
As for the backlight bleed - yes, it's pretty bad. Definitely worse than average. I think you're definitely under warranty on this one. I'd probably change it. It sucks that you're the one who pulled the short strand.. but it happens.
You could also use a dimmer.exe program, which will additionally dim your backlight in dark room and mitigate some of that bleed.
