ok so i finaly finished building my water cooled pc , but the corsair h115i water cooler has a weird rattle noise , its not loud , but im just wondering if thats normal since ive never had a water cooler before , i thought it was the fans but after unpluging them the sound still persists and the sounds seem to be coming from the cpu area , is this normal or not ?

I would be surprised if it just goes away.

As for common I am not sure about that but the problem is not rare or unknown.

Here is another older link from this within this forum:

Fixing the cavitation will require some detailed attention as can be read in the link.

Read through it all carefully and then look at your pump's User Manual/Guide and installation instructions. Visit Corsair's website FAQs and forums.

Once you feel you understand the specifics, plan and try a fix. If possible start with the simplest/easiest things that you can do with minimal effort and risk.
