Default Rattling noise at 4-5K rpm in 5th gear

Hey there my friends, I noticed this interesting ticking/vibration/rattle on the freeway around 4-5K rpm in 5th gear (I have a manual 991.2). Not sure if it was there before or if it was because it was cold outside (first time driving around 8:15am on a chilly day) or it is just normal. Furthermore, I just got done with a full service after a year of ownership (it has about 5K+ miles on it) and everything checked out fine. Lastly, it drives totally normally (nothing different other than the sound I mentioned). Should I be concerned? Or should I just drive it and not care unless it becomes obviously bad?

I'm not super worried, but just wanted to get some confirmation.

Thanks in advance everyone!

I've not heard that on mine (11,xxx miles). Are you close to your dealer to have them check it out?

It's the AC rocker switch. Need to get mine replaced too.
