My Corsair H50 pump is making this annoying clicking noise, is this normal? It's very faint, and man this unit is really loud. I'm definitely not keeping it. The stock fan is unbearable.
 
check and make sure there is no air in the system.. if it's still clicking then you may want to RMA it or talk to corsairs customer service about maybe getting a new pump..
 
Not normal. Mine's totally silent. I hear clicking only when I stick my ear right up to it (5cm) without any other fans running.

Consider contacting support and having them RMA it.
 
Mine is silent as well. Happy with it now, however, I had the older style mounting kit and had to shim the backplate with some rubber spacers in order to properly set the block to the cpu. Without the shims it was simply not tight enough for proper cooling. I also ended up removing the TIM and using some antec silver instead. IMO the TIM shipped on my unit was way too thick, then again, if it had properly seated against the CPU to begin with, it might have been fine. Overall a good choice for an i7 cooler IMO.
