hey all well iv turned all the case fans down from High all down to Low,and the only thing i can hear now is the pump itself..sounds like a vibration and its becoming pretti annoying lol,its set to level 5 atm meaning it pumps the highest rpm's at about 4800rpm i believe,should i possibly bring it down? and if so to what?with the specs im running...
current specs are two x 120.2 rads one watercooling the cpu and the other the 9800gx2,cheers for any help
 
Turn it down until the temps become unacceptable. My MCP-655 is at level 1. Level 5 makes zero difference in temps for my setup.
 
That's weird.. it should hardly make any noise. Make sure there isn't air in the lines and you have the pump mounted on something squishy like foam. With mine on 4 or 5, I can only hear a very slight bit of higher pitched pump noise with my ear about 6 inches away.

QFT - no diff in my temps from 1 to 5.

It doesn't really make any more noise though, just the whoosh of water.
 
My pump resonates with my side case panel, and makes some nasty medium picked vibration noises...

I turned it down to about 2.5, as this is one frequency where no vibration can be heard.
