CorWizz Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 My pump also have the high pitched noise, and it is driving me mad....! It it definitely not the fans. System is at stock speed in general, so no overclocking, and fans throughout the system is operating at minimum speeds of approx 470 - 650 rpm tho Graphicscard's fans are running at 1000 rpm. All in all a very silent system, except for the irritating high pitched noise same as many others describe. Corsair, I am willing to try whatever qualified suggestions you may have, though just don't start from A and end at Z (unless there's a really good point of doing that) in the book and waste a lot of time on both sides. :) P.s. It seems the system is completely silent upon bootup, at least when starting up the system the first time of the day, meaning it seems the problem arises after a little while. I also read about others where the pump is silent to begins with, and the hight pitch noise comes after a while. I did not do a firmware update to 1.0.5 (am running 1.0.4) as the firmware update post said not to update if you did not specifially had fan noise issues, which I do not believe it is. Here's hoping for a quick solution! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xplode-bg Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Upgrade your firmware to 1.05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorWizz Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 No such luck, or rather the update worked but did no difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serg Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I have the same problem, the noise is very annoying, even when the fan is operating. it is a crash? or is this normal? Corsair Link 2.3.4816 firmware 1.05 Sorry for the video quality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanik1 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I just did an RMA from a H100 to a H100i They said it was the newer pump and they don't have give out the H100 anymore. So I installed it and I am also getting that whinning and or screeching noise. Just like the video Serg uploaded. But mines get louder when I am doing things on my computer. playing games, editing large files, and the loudest when I transfer files from drive to another drive. I don't think the H100i is any better with this screeching noise. It is really annoying. And it seems that many people are experiencing the same issue. I hope there will be another firmware that maybe help with this screeching. Because I just got this pump and it has the latest firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted April 2, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 2, 2013 Have you guys tried connecting the fans directly to the MB rather than the pump and see if the noise remains? and are you using 3pin fans or PWM fans?

Serg Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Have you guys tried connecting the fans directly to the MB rather than the pump and see if the noise remains? and are you using 3pin fans or PWM fans? noise comes from the pump, fans got a new PWM, the problem is not in fans :[pouts: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted April 2, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted April 2, 2013 Go ahead and use the link on the left and start an RMA process so we can get that unit replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got this unit and do you mean the fan that came with the unit? Those I have connected with the pump. I can try to connect it to the board later today. I believe these fan came with 4pin connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryman Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 If its 4 pin I think it's pwm but if you have 3 pin (like me atm) then it's not pwm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serg Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 RAM GUY, I see you're a good person and helped many people in the forum, and could not help me solve my problem with RMA. I am ready to provide all the necessary information to do so. I do not speak in English, and I find it difficult to fill all right. one more question, if I can get cooler first, so I can not be without a computer for a long time, if this is not possible, Well have to endure this irritating noise. :[pouts: I hope for your understanding and support!

tanik1 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Hey RAM GUY. Just did what you told me to. Unplugged the fan from the pump and connect it directly to the board. Good news is that it doesn't make that whining noise having it setup like that but it still make like a hissing scratching sound every now and then. What does this mean though? What is your opinion on this RAM GUY? And the pump was made to plug in the fan to it to control with the corsair link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CorWizz Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 I'm a bit in doubt. It seems the pump is not just as annoying as it was before, but to be sure... how much is the pump supposed to say when running basically with an idle cpu? ie. as in me just visiting this forum, and typing this reply...? Cannot expect it to be completely silent can I? It is however still annoying... P.s. RAM GUY, the fans that came with the pump is definitely not pwm / 4 pin... hmm cannot even remember how many pins it had, but not all of them for sure. Is it possible to have them RMA / replaced with the new PWM models I read you mentioned in another thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryman Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Yes just submit a ticket and tell them you have 3 pin fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gajuambi Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 replaced the corsair h100 with the intel's stock fan and i am all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
