Not sure if this is the right section to post this, but dont know what is causing the problem. When the AC turns on now, I hear a semi-loud clicking noise. It is pretty fast and gets louder as I increase the amount of air put out. Is something lose somewhere, or broken? Appreciate the help since it's terribly hot atm and don't want to leave it on when it's making that sound in case it gets worse.

It's either very under charged, over charged, or there's air contamination in the system, most likely. There's pressure switches that turn off the compressor when the pressure gets too low or too high and that'll cause the compressor clutch to kick on and off rapidly which will burn out/wear out the clutch. You should take it to a shop that can evacuate the system, check for leaks, and then recharge it correctly. When it's all working properly it should blow about 45-50F air out of the center vents with the fan on high.
