Does the H100i v2 have a noticeable pump noise with fans running? I cannot hear any noise at all but Corsair link says the pump is running at 2700ish RPM. Should I be concerned the pump isn't running? Prior to buying the h100i v2, I was left with every impress that you could discern the pump sound even with the fans running. But it sounds silent to me.... 

 

My idle temps are low-mid 20c. Sometimes spikes to 30s if I recall right. My load temps are just about 80c. It's controlled. I hear fans kick-up when it goes over 80c.  

 

Anyway, do the fans mask the sound the pump makes or should I hear it with the fans if I listen? (I listened with the case cover off and put my ear as close to the water block as possible.... 

 

Quick note, this is on an i7 6700k O/C to a modest 4.5 GHz.

I have this exact AIO installed in my system. my head is currently less than 2 ft from it and its definitely on. I cannot hear it over the faint hum of my fans. Yours is working totally fine.

its a really quiet pump

as long as your temps are fine then the pump is doing its job
