Ticking could also be a hard disk issue.

Check to make sure that there are no cables near any fans throughout your case. Make sure all screws are screwed in all the way too.

the cables are good the screwed is good also

Your probably best just dissasembling and reassembling your entire PC and seeing if the problem persists

Could be something switching on and off every now and then. If it really bothers you you're gonna have to isolate where EXACTLY the noise is coming from. I'm sure there's an explanation for this.

Daily Driver: Asus ROG Flow X13 - 5900HS/3050 Ti

Primary Desktop: NCase M1 - 5800X3D/RX 6950XT

Travel PC: Fractal Terra - 5800X/RTX 3060 Ti

I have too many computers. List here.
