Pump suddenly really noisy

Hi,
Normally my pump has been quiet (XSPC 750 Dual Bay resevoir/pump) But today it is really noisy, like 10 razors going at once!

Does anybody know why,
I was thinking of completely turning my pc upsidown (my pump/res) is in the drive bay.)

Would that be safe.

ive only had it a week

brand new from overclockers

there may be a bubble in the pump, because there was a trapped buble in the pump chamber (outside the intake) that may have got trapped in the pump.

Do you think that mite be a possibility

Or move the case so the pump is low in the reservoir (if you understand me).

Sorry, im not with you. The pump is fixed onto the resevoir

Sadly, it's probably on it's way out. I'd check the levels, and if it's definitely submerged, I'd get ready to swap it out - before it dies, obviously.

I come back to this thread weeks later to tell you that I should have taken your advice but didnt. My pump has died

Weep

Im going to send it back to overclockers.

Does anyone know wether it is ok to emty a w/c system then use a different coolant in it?
