Water cooling loop has gotten noisy

[PPD3195]

I'm not sure what's causing this, but for the past few months there's a random "sloshing" sound coming from the cooling system. I haven't been able to pinpoint where it's really coming from. There's no leaks at all. I can't remember what liquid I used but it was roughly $20 a bottle and is a blue color. I also have a silver kill coil in it but only added that after the noise started.

It's worked fine for about 8 or 9 months, and is still working fine. Temps are great. It's just that sound...almost like something is getting shot through the pump. Could there have been some kind of film or something that came loose and is getting pushed through the loop?

Thanks

Well that stuff generally bulks up and clogs everything

Never use anything but Distilled Water. Except if you PC is constantly in less than 0C, then you should probably use some of that special antifreeze they sell. But yeah, it will clog up no matter what. You should probably take it apart, clean all the blocks and then just use distilled water.

That sloshing noise is more than likely air in the line. Makes a garggling sound. Probably not any build up passing through. If anything, it could also be a micro film that's holding tiny little bubbles until they release and go flowing throw the loop. Ditch the $20 bottle of whatever and use just distilled water. The rest is really just voodoo.

It's likely you never fully bled your system 9 months ago and some air bubbles worked themselves out after awhile. Just open the bleed valve for awhile and see if it goes away.
