Hi guys,
So I realize that this question seems a bit odd, however basically my D5 vario pump from XSPC used to create this loud and extremely anoying humming noise what operating.
Now heres the odd thing, I decided to try out the EK-UV blue coolant that I purchased a while back, so I filled my loop with it on when I turned my pc on to my surprise the anoying humming noise was reduced, still there but reduced.
So basically what I would like to know is this:
-Has anyone had this experince before?
-what rpm readings should you be getting from the pump?
-Is the humming noise simply due to vibration in the coolant?
-What are some good resevoir suggestions for my to mount my D5 pump to? I do not have a pump top, only the bare pump and screw ring, as I got it as a res/pump combo
One last thing, I used to just use distilled water with a piece of kill coil inside the inlet tube.
