You'd have a quieter experience with a NH-D15 or Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 3.

Yes, AIO pumps are not quiet in fact they can be a little annoying to the hum they make.

Nope.  It is going to be louder regardless because there's more moving parts.

I had a H100i (non-GTX) and currently a H105. My H100i had a pretty obvious pump noise, as I have a pretty quiet build. Eventually I replaced it with a H105 (after my H100i leaked and ruined a motherboard) and i am way happier. Maybe once a week I hear that water swoosh sound for no more than a few seconds, the pump is pretty inaudible.

I have the H80i gt if the H100i gtx uses the same pump then it's not that loud. You should be able to control the pump speed anyway.  Threw corsair's own software or a fan controller like I have done. 

 

I thought I would also tell you if your looking for fans check out the s EK-VARDAR 1850RPM I am using them on mine and can hardly hear them even at full power over my other case fans

My H80iGT in Quiet Mode inside a Define R4 was basically. I had to really listen hard to hear the pump or the fans. With the pump set to quiet and the fans at 45 to 50 percent, it was still bearable when gaming. At that point, the GPU fans were louder.

 

The stock fans may not be quiet at high speeds, but you shouldn't need to run it faster than 50% most of the time. Plus, they were designed to have higher static pressure than just about any other fan you can buy, and they were specifically made for the dense radiator on the Corsair units. If you were gonna blow a bunch of money just to get new fans that are quieter, a Swiftech AIO would've been better.
