I have H100i and when I shake the rad I can hear the water inside it move. That can only happen if there is air inside it, right ? Isin't that bad ?

I know its a closed loop so theoretically there is no where for the fluids to go/vapor.

but do I have to disassemble it and fill it again with proper fluids ?

refilling and bleeding would be a pain in the ass but plausible.

your thoughts ?

if your going to go through the hassle of opening up the loop, I would suggest you add a reservoir so you can actually monitor the flow.

 

I have similar sounds in my loop but I have added a reservoir and I can confirm I have a very good flow rate.

 

 

if your temps are good i wouldnt worry at all

I had an H100i and it does the same thing. Never had any issues with it, though. I'm guessing you could possibly get in trouble if you mount the pump above the radiator, but otherwise you should be fine. I definitely wouldn't attempt to refill it as you will not only void the warranty, but also most likely brick the unit. There's no refill port and that you could just pop open and refill without damaging anything.

I read in the instructions for one of my closed loops that they need a little air for optimum performance. It's fine, there's no need to try and open it.
