NZXT X63 making weird noises. Should I be concerned?

[zhnn_xu]

Hey guys,

 

My X63 has been making this weird whining noise ever since I installed it, but it isn't constant, it will whine for like 3 seconds before silence, and then whining again. Can I have some help please, thanks so much.

wonder if the pump is going dry or it's just a pump that is failing or has a failure that makes noise.

I guess everything is plugged correctly, but if remove the radiator and hold it up (might be a bit hot though) to see if that helps removing the noise (aka water going down to the pump not letting it go dry). As on the picture I would assume they are closer to the same level. not sure if that really matters so much.

Else you could RMA it, if you bought it "recently" or haven't done anything else to it. To see if you get a unit that doesn't have this problem.
