Annoying pump sound

Hey guys, I recently setup my firat WCd loop and it all went just fine until the pump started making a weird noise after about 5 seconds of the loop was fully filled with water, and then when I turn the pump off, theres like a huge air bubble emerging from the outlet, and when I tilt the case forwards (left on the pic) it doesnt make a noise? And when I listen to the 120 rear rad, I can hear the water trinkling? It's an mcp655 btw. I'd really apreciate help, I was so hyped about the new watercooling!

Best regards, Alexander

you res isnt higher than your pump, pumps arnt made suck water.

 

put the res in a higher location so that water floods the res. with out even trying

then  try again

Your res needs to go UP, it will help tones, You  may need to drain the loop and give the tube from the pump to the bottom of the res more length the raise it higher

There is not enough water in the loop, you have air bubbles in it

Pretty much this.

 

Also, what possessed you to do a CPU-only loop? Are you planning on expansion? Because if you aren't, it would have been more cost and time effective to buy a Swiftech H320.
