It's very normal to get a ticking from the brake disc. Are you sure it's not that that you're hearing?

 

[garysnooker]

Is it touching the motor at the back? If so, you need a spacer on the thread.

Now I can concentrate on solving my own problems, like where to get a decent 4k G-sync monitor from, which is the most frustrating problem I've tried to solve in years.

Did you solve that yet? Both ccl and laptops direct have the pg279q last I looked, but 27" may be smaller than you wanted..

no its not the wheel as a buckle in it but the spokes are all tight i will take the wheels to the bike shop to get them sorted i did notice that it only makes the clicking noise when im on the bike there no clicking or noise when i lift the back wheel up and turn the pedals

CCL has only 1440 version and Laptops direct has neither. I managed to snag a refurb Acer predator XB3 for £700 in the end, which is perfect. You can't get a new one for love nor money. My mate could only find a refurb Acer Nitro after 2 weeks of pulling his hair out. Just waiting for my new PC now, which is the only way you can get a graphics card.

i took the wheel to the bike shop to get the wheel true and they did not want to know the clicking noise is grting louder

It seems to be doing it whether you're freewheeling or not, which means it must be coming from inside the motor or the motor is touching something..

I had a similar noise, mine sounded like a football rattle, a small screw had come out from the motor unit luckily it did no damage put it back with Loctite no problems since.
