Are there any AIO's with a silent pump?

I'm about to return my 3rd faulty Raijintek Triton AIO one due a leak during shipping and twice due to the pump becoming extremely loud after a month or two of use.

I was wondering if there are any other AIO's that have nearly inaudible pumps (i have almost noctua fans to use). The Raijintek pump is actually very, very quiet when it's working and i'd like to get something similar. I've had a Corsair H100i before in another rig and I found that to be surprisingly loud even in low noise mode.

If no such cooler exists, and I suspect it doesn't, then I might just buy air cooler and make do with an ugly looking system :(

Thanks
 
From all the people I have asked IRL, the pump is the noisiest part but should still be quiet.

I went with air cooling and it is barely audible unless I pop my head under the desk.
 
In my experience an AIO doesn't exist with a *truly silent* pump.

Some people don't mind the noise and think it's silent because they can't hear it over the drone of a reference AMD GPU cooler, but the AIOs I've owned have always been the loudest component in the whole build, hence why I ditched them and went back to air.
 
The EK Predator uses a stock DDC pump, those are usually pretty quiet, though I would not think it is completely silent.

Too bad there isn't an AIO with a D5 pump..
 
The first AIO i had was an Antec kuhler 620 and its silent, i had to touch it to make sure its running, i still have it in my work machine and its still silent after close to 3 years of daily use. My triton sounds like a fish tank in comparison.

This is why I went air cooler. I've RMA'd 3 AIO's because of pump noise. I'll never go AIO again.

I returned a swifthech h240x because of pump noise also,

OP check out a Cryorig R1 ultimate cooler, it's much better looking than noctua nh d15.

Credits to doyll would not have known about it if it was not for him, still loving it.;)
 
Yep - GFX Card turns the fans off in 2D.
Can't hear the Noctua NH-U14S
Case has a 200mm and 140mm fan running at low speed (adjusting per temp)

Looked at many AIO's when purchasing but a good air cooler seems perfect unless going for high overclocks.
A moderate overclock is fine for me :)

Yes mate. Read about many having leaks and didn't want those issues. Bought a be quiet dark rock 3 cooler. Think I'll stay air cooling for the see able future.

So many people doing the same now, i had AIO's for many years too but feel a lot happier now with air. Nice pic there, what are the fans you have at the top of your case? Really like the led effect of those.
