Hello guys,i just bought Enermax Liqmax II 240,installed it,and its quite noisy,first i was thinking its fans,but after disconnection fans the noise is still loud,so then its pump itself.The RPM is about 2600,i tryed to put it in different mb headers,but its still the same problem.
I can hear noise all around in the room.Is the pump faulty or im doing smth wrong?
Noise is similar to this:

Yes I watched the vids. I didn't hear anything on the first one but the second sounded terrible. I never recommend liquid coolers unless you're doing extreme overclocking. Too noisy and too many parts that can fail. A good tower cooler is more than enough 90% of the time and almost always quieter.
