NZXT Kraken X61 is very loud when it is upright.

It makes a loud and annoying noise when it is upright. The only way I can make it quiet is if I turn the computer on its side. Otherwise, the unit works as it should. I get very good temperatures in-game, it's just that it's very loud when the computer is on, and upright. 

 

What should I do?

If it's mounted in the front, try mounting it in the top.

Shaqo_Wyn, no it is mounted on the top.

It sounds like this, this is not my video by the way.

Sounds like you have a faulty pump, can you RMA it?

Okay, according to everyone I need to RMA it. I will be doing that ASAP. Even though I have a 6 year warranty I will be doing it very soon.
