Many monitors automatically degauss at startup causing a snapping noise
followed by clicking. This is the monitor switching into video mode after
degaussing.
What is degaussing? I'm so glad you asked:~ ) It corrects changes in the
surrounding magnetic field. The magnetic field can cause a color problem. So
many monitors will automatically de-gauss on startup.
If your monitor wobbles all the time than there is something close by
affecting the magnetic field which should be removed. Usually this is
because of a fan running close by the monitor.
Move the fan further away. The problem of a continually wobbling monitor
could also be due to speakers or other electrical contraption. Just move it.
I'm guessing your prob is the first thing I mentioned. Just part of the
normal deal. So go back to sleep & stop worrying, wart.

mean it has a problem? Is it something to worry about?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
