986 Boxster clattering noise, please help

I've just got this car for a month and I'm not familiar with this kind of engines. During the engine rev I've got a clattering noise from 2000-3000rpm.

Below a movie from inside of my car, without the engine cover. With the cover it can be also heard but less.

What it can be? thanks in advance for help

It is hard to desiver the noise on your video. Could be anything from the front belt idler pulley to water pump to loose cam chains. Easiest way to start is to remove the front panel take off your serpentine belt and see if any of the pulleys have any play. If there is no play take it to your local shop and have him look at the chain tensioners and guides
