paulrawr Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Hi there, I received my replacement H60 today, as the previous one had the dreaded grinding/buzzing noise. To my surprise I find out I got the new H60 2013 Edition (Well, I think it is) instead of another old H60. I was hoping that it would solve my problem and everything would be hunkydory but sadly it turns out to be louder than the previous. It's making a noise a bit like an aquarium but VERY loud, especially when compared to the stock cooler I was using while waiting for the replacement. Also I think the temperatures I'm getting are a bit high for what it should be. I'm running a i7-2600 non-k edition at stock speeds and getting between 38 to 42c at idle. Does anyone have any idea what I've done wrong is it another faulty component. Cheers for the help. Paul EDIT: Flipped the radiator over to see if it helps, just as noisy. Any ideas? Should I try connecting the cooler's 3 pin to a different connection like on a Molex to 4 3pin connector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Lay the case flat for a few hours as it may only be air in the pump. If the BIOS has any fan-control feature, turn it off and see if it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
