I don't know what brand you got but I know that Lemforder is the best and are worth the few extra bucks. Three weeks is a bit short for a new link to fail unless it was defective. First try pushing up and down on the front of the car quite fast and see if you can hear the noise this is best done with two people, then get under with both wheels off the ground and have someone move steering wheel back and forth and see if you hear noise. USE JACK STANDS.
Also did you change the sway bar bushings?
