1200 rpm? mine runs at 2700 rpm hmm...

at first I plugged it in CPU_OPT and was having alot of noise so I put in in a fan header and still had noise. RMA it and got a new Nepton 240m and I was good at a rpm of 1200, no noise just a bit for the first 10mins. But I ran the fan tuning thing and my pump was around 1200rpm and started to make noise. I went in the uefi BIOS and put the fan_header of my pump at 100% s it get the max voltage and it looks better now I will see today if it's still good since I only did those changes yesterday night.

I recently bought a nepton 240m and i straight away noticed some pump noise, but i let it be thinking it was air bubels that would go away. Now 40h later it still makes the same noise and is buging me, i unplugged all the fans and measured the dba to 31dba with my phone 20cm away from the pump (unaccurat i know) when the pc is off it says about 23dba. Should i RMA it or is it normal?

I got one too with my new build 2 weeks ago and I had to RMA it and my new one was fine at 1200 rpm for a week until i decided to run the Fan Tuning thing of Fan Xpert of Asus and It ran at 1450 rpm for a day and was making noise on and off. Now i put it back on a 1200 rpm and its still making noise. Maybe I will go with a Kraken X61 or Corsair not sure what to do either.
