First timer -- Very Loud

[NMFord]

Okay so I got my first loop setup, however its very loud, not just the pump (MCP-655) but the waterflow is very audible, is this caused by bubbles in the water? should I top up the res some more?

you probably still have air in the system.

Odd that you can hear the water flowing.

Cycle the pump on and off a few times and see if you get any large bubbles moving through anywhere.

i had that problem when i refilled my loop for the 3rd time, kept leaving tubing to long, but my water cooling was inaudiable but this last time i kept thinking water was leaking becuase i could here it so i finally decided to do something. I picked up the pump and shook the crap out of it, then i decided to shake my radiator some more, got some small air bubbles out of the rad and this one medium one from the pump, it fixed the problem but i think it was the rad
