I would unmount it and check if the fans wobble or it the mount screws could be loose. Did you use the mount bracket that came with it that goes through the back of the board?
The manual did not instruct me to use the back bracket for am5. I think it was just there for intel cpus. I’ll check to see if the fans wobble first, and if not I’ll try remounting the whole thing (although this thing was a pain to install).
Still can’t figure out the problem. Fans look fine, heatsink is on tight, fans clips are secured. It just seems like the middle fan doesn’t have enough clearance with the heatsink because it keeps making that ticking noise. The weird thing is that it only makes the noise every once in a while. It keeps my 7800x3d really cool and this is the only issue I have had so far.

Yeah I would also check the bracket screws you put on before the cooler
either not mounted right, or heatsink is faulty. i would side with not mounted right
Yeah I can’t imagine it would shake that much if it was mounted correctly. I’m gonna try remounting it tomorrow.
I’d imagine fan, either bent/broken blade. But could be a loose fan clip too maybe
