IM so disappointed with this card! It literally gurgles and sounds like running water all day. No matter how you mount it, the BLOCK seems to gurgle water. While my card stays cool, this water noise is annoying. My dual FAN 780ti at 65% on fan was quieter than this. And for the price, it should be quiet and the water should be FILLED to the TOP. Not worth my time to try another one. If you google, you will see others have reported this issue too. I will be sending mine back for a kingpin or something. Be warned folks.

It's a minority of people that have these issues. I'm pretty sure the issue lies with the Asetek type of pump, and it affects pretty much all "brands" of AIO's, from Corsair, to EVGA, to NZXT to MSI (and probably others I am missing). Put in an RMA and you will almost certainly get a silent one to replace it. A quick question though: how did you have the radiator mounted in your case, out of curiosity?

As Makalaure is hinting at, the radiator is supposed to be mounted above the card, vertical, with the hoses to the radiator at the bottom. If it isn't mounted that way, that may be your problem.

We do apologize for any issues you are having with your gtx 980 ti Hyrbid. Due to shipping the product can can move around a bit and cause small air pockets within the AIO cooler. Making sure that you have the radiator mounted having the hoses towards the bottom and over time any "gurgling" should dissipate. You also want to make sure that the radiator is also mounted up higher than the video card to allow gravity to help with the liquid flow. Jaring or shaking the radiator can help this as well. If the issue still persists please contact our Support Team at 888-881-3842 who are available 24/7 so we can assist you with a replacement if needed. Regards,

hello, sorry for my very bad english , i like a silent pc, but my evga hybrid pump was very noisy, buzzy. i made some reasearch and the pump only have 2 wire and too control the pump via motherboard i need rpm check, because if you plug the pump directly to the MB fan header the pump will run at max, i renove the plastic cover of the pump and see only 2 wires but a solder point for the rpm, just solder a wire on it and i can control the pump via mb. and i make the pump running always at 1500rpm and now is dead silent, the fan are directly connect to 12v psu, they run always at max 1200rpm and very silent, my temp have decrease about 10 dg, and run at 1500 mhz at 40/41 dg playing battlefield 4 at max

Thanks for the advice but it is a defected product and it was rma and another defected unit replace the old. What is the sense of the warranty here. Having low temperature at the cost at a anoying buzzing sound at idle too?!? Now i have both silence and cooling :)
