Hi Folks,

I built my first ever customer loop last year, it's not the prettiest job in the world but it does the job and is reliable.

However, for quite a while now, months in fact, it makes some horrible noises like water dripping onto a hotplate, a drip followed by a fizzing. Everytime I hear it I frantically check it all over but there doesn't appear to be any leaks, I thought it might be water leaking onto a PCB or into the PSU but I run my fingers around all the fittings and everything I can see, but no wet patches and nothing obvious.

I'm abit stumped really, does anyone else's loop make unpleasant noises?

Cheers,

Dom
 
A dripping sound can be an air bubble trapped that's trying to get through the loop, but a fizzing soound is definitely not something I've come across before.

You say you've checked the fittings, but have you checked the blocks themselves for leaks as well? I'm assuming you've got both a gpu/cpu in the loop here?
 
Only time I hear sort of a fizzing sound
Would be when the loops first assembled
And the pumps at max
A load of tiny air bubbles sort of fizz
But shouldn't last any length of time
Assuming you bled all the air out of the loop?

A video with the sound would be useful though
