ok, so new system is now up and running, and I'm pleased with it, except one thing...
it's a sandybridge i7, clocked to 4.6ghz (as per ocuk bundle) in a watercooled 800D case.
the w/c rig is an XSPC dual bay reservoir with an integrated Laing DDC 1 Ultra 12v DC pump
The problem is the pump noise - it spins at 4600rpm, and the high pitch whirr is annoying me
I've taken the reservoir out and held it, tried different positions - but the noise is there
does anyone have any experience with this pump / reservoir?
I should mention I used an old rheostat to bring the RPM to 3600 which really improved the noise but the rheostat started smoking!!
