AIO Pump noise won’t go away

Badger24
Go to solution Solved by Badger24,

I just got a Corsair H115I Platinum 280mm cpu cooler used from a friend. The temps are good and it runs well but the pump is extremely noisy. Turning the pc on its side makes it go away but when I turn it upright again it comes back. Is there any way to get it to go away completely?

 

EDIT: I forgot to plug in the usb cable that controls the pump speed lol

I had it mounted at the front with the tubes at the top but it’s currently outside of my case as I’m trying methods to get rid of the noise

Tubes at the top isn't ideal, you get some air bubbles circulating in the wrong places. Tubes down is recommended. Might help the noise

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

Tubes at the top is fine, as long as the pump is below the top. There might be "some" noise, but considering most cases and length of tubing, some can't be mounted the way you're suggesting.

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.

Slightly flawed thinking, its basic physics. First, his pump is the concern. In the picture above, any trapped air is all the way up in the radiator and his pump will have no air reaching it as its the lowest point in the loop. 

 

If the pump is making noise in that configuration in the picture, there is something else wrong with it.

I didn't get the impression that the pump was making the noise in the configuration shown above.

 

It might also not be certain that the pump itself is making the noise. And since it was mentioned that reorienting the whole PC, and therefore the pump, made the noise go away, I thought air bubbles might be the culprit.

The pump still makes noise when in the same orientation as the picture

the pump is making noise even with the radiator above it
