AIO system buzzing noises

xxboomstick

So I’ve got a quick question, I’ve got an AIO system and the radiator has been making a constant buzzing sound. If I remove the AIO will I need to get more fans to replace the AIO? (iBUYPOWER 240mm Addressable RGB Liquid Cooling System)

Do you know the model of AIO or brand?  The radiator shouldn’t buzz, it’s a metal chamber with water going through it. The fans attached could buzz and the pump, often on the CPU block could also buzz. 
 

You also can’t remove the AIO Cooling without replacing it with another CPU cooler. Without a CPU cooler, it will overheat in under 1 minute, probably even more like 30 seconds. 
 

Just need a little more information to really help.

This was a pre built from a while ago.(iBUYPOWER 240mm Addressable RGB Liquid Cooling System) Is the only thing it says about the liquid cooling.

The radiator cannot actually create a buzzing sound as there are no moving parts in it. Buzzing is usually caused by vibration, which comes from a moving part. The moving parts in an AIO are the pump and the fans. My suggestion is to eliminate them one by one. Start by unplugging the fans first. See if the buzzing goes away. If it does maybe you need a fan or two if both are faulty. If it is the pump is going bad, then you will need another cooler. One more thing, considering that the system is from iBUYPOWER if it is still under warranty you should contact them and maybe they will get the issue resolved for you.

Ok thanks for the clarification and help. Is it hard to replace an AIO system?

This is the same cooler that I have in my computer recently built by iBuyPower.  The pump in fact is part of the radiator, not the cooling block like in most AIO's.  I was confused as to why there was only one 3 wire connector attached to the cooling block.  Because it does have addressable RGB that works, I know that connector is for that.  There are no other connectors to the block.  There is however a mysterious set of wires going to the top of the radiator that are not attached to any of the 4 fans.  I haven't detached it to take a closer look, because honestly it's not that important.  See attached photos.
