The Noise!MAKE IT STOP!@#

[Futher]

I have a closed watercooling system, and the pump is inside my computer (as it should be) Sometimes the noise isn't that bad, but sometimes it gets out of hand....It's just loud as hell sometimes. I tried putting a piece of bubble wrap underneath it, and that seems to help a little, but still loud. I was thinking of buying A SET OF THESE for under the pump... Any suggestions?

I'm not clear on why the sound changes. Is it just better when you have music playin or something. There may be another problem if the noise changes that drastically. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but does the noise get worse when you've had it on for a while and heated the water up, or is it just noisy sometimes when you start it up, and not other times. Best bet would be to see if just resting the pump on a sock or something and closing the case to see what the best noise might be if you stop it from rattling. Wouldn't leave it there because it's not secure but you'd see the difference of rattling. If the pump still has variations in the noise I'm not sure what might be causing it. I have some thoughts but i'm still in the process of making my own watercooling aparatus to test stuff with. BTW what case are you using for your system?

One thing that I will do when I set up a watercooling rig is I will place the radiator outdoors, like the outdoor part of an air conditioning unit. The SenFu Radiator even looks like the kind of thing that I could use for this. I could put Delta fans on it because it would not matter about noise, because it is outside. But before I do that, I will have to have a permanently-installed computer.
