Damn air bubbles stuck in my pump and making a really annoying trickling noise, I've been shaking my case around and squeezing the tubes by the pump for almost an hour now and no luck. I've made a few posts over the last few days on this, but any more tips anyone?

Me: Yeah I just really can't get my H220 working again, I've tried everything that was suggested in the forum.

Brian (Swiftech Support): Hmm, have you tried slapping it?

If your still having problems, dont make a new post. Add to the older ones

Don't think I'm breaking any rules by making another post on it, new post = new people see it which is what I need, new ideas

try running the pump at full speed for awhile.

 

I just re did my expanded loop and had the trickle for the first time. annoying as shit.

I tip and tossed my case in every direction to work any air out. I got it better but either still had some trickle noise or loud whooshing of water.

got it as best as I could then ran the pump at full for awhile with fanxpert 2

 

after a bit the trickle went away as air worked itself out of the pump.  no im good back to just hearing the quiet buzz of the motor if I put my ear to the inside of the case. but it running at 1300rpm its pretty quiet, never needs to go much higher... it will at like 40c but nothing gets it past that except synthetics like prime or something.

If you don't managed to get it fixed, putting a resvoir in the loop if stop any air bubbles. Its a sure way to fix it, but requires a but of "investment".

 

If you don't want to do that then you can RMA it.

Feel free to PM for any water-cooling questions. Check out my profile for more ways to contact me.
