LetoSB Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 My pump is making a loud noise for the past 4 days, it’s a very loud humming noise and when I start a game it makes a rattling noise. To be clear when I got it first it used to make absolutely no noise. Fans and pump are running on quiet via icue rattling noise https://streamable.com/mhbq5 humming noise https://streamable.com/eeudw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvaz Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) I have the same problem so its normal or not ? But only in the quite mode ... in balance it has a little noise and extreme mode it totally gone Edited July 15, 2019 by Sylvaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 This isn't uncommon with the Platinum coolers. I would suggest that you leave it in Balanced or Extreme. Quiet not only isn't quiet, it also negatively impacts your temperatures. The difference between Balanced and Extreme on temps in negligible.

Sylvaz Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 So it isn't normal then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 So it isn't normal then ? It's not uncommon ... which means that it's pretty usual. Seriously - set it to Balanced. You don't lose anything (doesn't impact lifetime), it's quieter AND you won't take a few degrees hit on the cooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedi Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Hmm.. I am also experiencing some noise issues with my H100i RGB Platinum cooler. Started about a few months ago, but frankly I didn't want to deal with it so i just let it ride. I have had it for about 8 months in this new build and over the past few weeks it seems to have progressively worsened. I just gave the "Balanced" setting a try, also shut the system down and then turned it back on. Given I just changed a few things, I'll let it play out for a a day or so before taking another look at possibly sending it back if the noise gets worse. I remember having a similar issue with my H80 back in the day and it was a faulty pump. However, based on some discussions I saw here on the forum, I'll let it play out for a few days.

Speedi Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 This isn't uncommon with the Platinum coolers. I would suggest that you leave it in Balanced or Extreme. Quiet not only isn't quiet, it also negatively impacts your temperatures. The difference between Balanced and Extreme on temps in negligible. OK. I gave it a go to set to BALANCED. It did get significantly quieter.. and now it has dropped my cooling by over 1.5 degrees C. Interesting. :!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedi Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 OK. I gave it a go to set to BALANCED. It did get significantly quieter.. and now it has dropped my cooling by over 1.5 degrees C. Interesting. :!: Well, it's become noisy, once again, even in balanced. I can try and go to Extreme to see if it addresses the issue. I'm really not a fan of having this thing making buzzing noises. Very irritating. :(: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headz Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Hi, I've got similar problem with the noise. In my case its 2 loud in general no matter what preset I use and obviously as I'm concerned about noise I keep it on quiet which is still loud. On top of that when I put it on balanced mode you can hear crackling noise coming from the pump that does not happen on Extreme mode but that mode I never touch as its so loud. My fans on IDLE are set on 700rpms up to 40C and my IDLE temps on stock 3700X ambient 25C don't go over 35-36C but its 2 noisy even on the quiet preset. Not sure what to do wheter to send it back, any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont want to resurrect an old thread but i recently got this cooler and im having this issue Luckily on Quiet, i cant hear it to much ( i hear it ) but my case blocks most of the noise, but as soon as i go balanced, its just odd and hard to explain but it sounds like the motor is gargling , not the water. I dont get it, whether its bubbles or the pump itself in the CPU block, its hard to tell. On extreme, its to loud generally but it just sounds like a high rpm fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birra606 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I have same problem straight out of the box the Pump is making a hell of racket. Quiet mode is loud, Balanced is Louder and Extreme is unbearable I can hear it in the next room. Any one had any luck solving this issue as I'm still waiting for RMA on Corsair Power supply submitted over a month and a half ago, so another solution to this would be much appreciated.
