I would be very interested to know what components you are trying. My new eagle chain for a frame swap was so noisy I thought it was the bb, then the cranks, then the pedals, then the frame, then the wheel. It was desperation that made me try the chain… And the old chain was fine.
Then I put new chain and Sram chainring together, and it was good.
That all meant I got less than one chain worth of use from a Burgtec chainring. The symptom was that under moderate power or more the chain was sticking to the ring, causing noise on the return run the the mech.
