A properly working Hybrid pump can not be heard , period.

sounds like cavitation , Flip that rig.. make the pump the lowest thing in the loop , shake twice and power it up . if it still makes noise , call CS and start RMA


I did that multiple times. It's not going away. Only goes away while the gpu is in full load for some weird reason.

Just got my RMA replacement and installed. Whisper quiet again and all is good in the world. I think it was actually starting to fail I was slowly getting higher temps.

Thanks naturian and hamnguyen, really useful input.  I might be out of luck as a Gigabyte X570 owner + heavy iCUE user.  I'm poking around and looking at options as I'm waiting for my mini gpu -> 4 pin adapter to be delivered.  From what I've seen so far...
  • The Gigabyte Smart Fan utility lets you create %-based curves, but doesn't support using GPU temp as a sensor
  • iCUE lets you use GPU temp as a sensor, but doesn't let you create %-based curves (only RPMs for custom curves, which will always be 0 here)
  • Argus conflicts with iCUE and causes it to lose control of all of its sensory / fan control




Only option is Argus then. :/


I'm trying to get iCUE and Argus to coexist but no luck yet.  But!  I have both a Commander Core and a Commander Pro installed, and I was only looking at the CPro in iCUE earlier.  I just noticed that it looks like you CAN create a %-based curve in iCUE with the Commander Core.  I have one extra fan spot on the CCore and am going to try that out.


 
I have a Commander Pro and am able to set a curve for the fans, although I don't have the pump noise so I haven;t done that mod.  You may have to set "4-pin" as the "fan" type in the device settings for the Commander Pro.

How long did your RMA take? 
 
I'm getting the same "refrigerator compressor" style noises that you were.  Did a check with Sound Meter and it's 45 db at idle.  With the side of my case off at idle, my 3090 FTW3 Hybrid is running anywhere from 37-41 C, which seems to be higher than I remember.  Ran a few stress tests, and it's staying below 60 C at full blast, but the noise is awful.
 
Tried shaking the radiator, and laying the case on the side. but neither works.  I've started the RMA process, but I'm interested in how long it actually takes.  Sounds like there might be a bad bearing in the pump.  Had the card for about 3 weeks.  Was whisper quiet originally, then I went on 5 day vacation and came back to this.

Still waiting to get my ticket number so I can submit an RMA.  The noise is slowly driving my roommate insane, which is kind of a bonus, but it's bothering me too.  So I'm trying to resolve it ASAP.

Wow, that is probably super annoying. I'm waiting in the queue currently for the 3080 ftw3 hybrid and this pump noise is basically my biggest worry lol. Hopefully you can get yours fixed via RMA relatively quickly!

Honestly, it is annoying, but it's not something that I would let negatively influence my purchase decision.  I'm also in the queue for a 3080 FTW3 Hyrbid that I'll probably put in a secondary PC.  But the EVGA warranty is good enough that I'm confident that at a certain point I will get a solid working version.  I bought a 1200w Corsair Power Supply that I had to get RMA'd 4 different times before I got one that worked.  It was very annoying, but in the end it was worth it, because the price I paid for the one I got was a lot lower than it would have been paying full retail.  Since my Hybrid 3090 came in at pre-tariff prices, I'm willing to jump through some RMA hoops if I need to in order to get one that works properly.  Since I'm still in my first 30 days, any RMA replacement I get should be a brand new, non-refurb version.

Had the refrigerator sound on my KP, they received on March 11 and no sign from them since...
Probably it's taking a lot to get the spare AiO to replace or even another card...
Sent it to RMA Europe / Germany.

Thanks for reporting back. I'm going to have a similar setup and am glad to hear that it's working well and quietly for you

on your box, on the back of the card or in the EVGA portal since you registered your card right?

this is fraking annoying, found out that two or three KPs bought in December started being noisy after few months of use, silent initially...
it never ends =))
or it's just a simple lottery...
remember that years ago, we did not worry so much about noise, quality, build, cards were pretty much rock solid, we just hoped for an ASIC at least 80%, that was card lottery, nowadays lottery is to catch a silent and reliable card...

When people report their pumps are silent do they mean if the fans were off and the room was quiet, you literally couldn't hear the pump, or is there some noise to be expected?  Like if I ran my corsair AIO at "Extreme" speed it would make some noise.  I'm also assuming the EVGA 3080 Hybrid pump is more or less running at max RPM when plugged into the 3080, per EVGA instruction?

When I say silent, I don't mean they wouldn't make any noise.  More like, you can't discern the pump over any other ambient noise.  I'm sure a db meter could pick up the amount of noise made by a properly functioning pump, but my human ears can't hear it unless I take the cover off of my case and I stick my head inside.  Problematic pump noises have a different tone, and tend to break through ambient noise, even if their decibel level isn't very high.  When you get a malfunctioning pump, like the one I currently have, you get the annoying noise at a level that you can't just ignore.

Can confirm: for both my 3080 hybrid and my EVGA CLC240, the pump is effectively inaudible if the fans are on at all.

8086K / 3080 Hydro / 2x8GB T-Force Nighthawk 3600MHz / Samsung 870 Pro 500GB / Z370FTW / Super Flower Platinum SE 1000W / DG77 wall-mounted

Yes, you can hear the pump and water running as a very subtle white noise if you get really close to your the pump. But inaudible and indistinguishable from fan noise at a normal distance. When it failed it literally sounded like a really bad broken old refrigerator.

I converted my Ultra to a hybrid maybe 4 months ago, and for the first month it was noisy but over time and with some shaking I got it to be quieter, but you can definitely hear a whine in the room regardless of the fans being on or off, and I put a stethoscope on different parts and the pump is definitely to blame, it's super loud compared to other AIO pumps.  It's pretty annoying and I've gotten used to it I guess, but it's sounding like something I might want to RMA...

That's just what it sounds like. The people here with their "silent" Hybrid pumps just don't have a reference point that is meaningful. I did the wire mod to run mine slower, and now I'm happy with it. At stock configuration, it's an unpleasant sound. Will not buy another because of this, although the thermal performance is just excellent. I'd rather get a cheaper custom water setup and GPU waterblock to avoid these issues in the future, unless, of course, EVGA makes a new product with a quiet pump or at least one that can be controlled by software.

My RMA just got approved yesterday.  When I get the new one, I'll take some db meter readings and do some sound recording.  Assuming it runs as it's supposed to.  Currently, "broken refrigerator" pump on the current card registers as 45 db, and a significantly different noise than normal pump sounds.  If I get a good card this time, I'll record what a properly functioning pump is supposed to sound like, so we can all be sure we are talking about the same thing.

I also had to get a replacement shipped.  My pump started getting very loud after 3 months of use.  I started noticing the temps rising and the pump getting louder.  I tried adjusting it but it didnt make a difference.  It was whisper quiet up until it wasnt...

I also had a KP which was not so good from the sound point of view - "fridge" pump and coil whine.
After exchanging few e-mails with eu.support shaking the card not really helped.
So they said to send it for RMA (Germany)... They said that process shouldn't take more than 3-5 working days - first will try to fix issue with existing card (eventually replace the AiO) or else it will be replaced with different unit.

After paying a lot on shipping THREE weeks passed and nothing happened, no reply to my e-mails etc.
Then finally yesterday I recieved an answer from US support that I need to be patient.

Are we seeing an improving trend with the pumps or is it going the other way?

So I've gotten my RMA replacement of the 3090 FTW3 Ultra Hybrid.  The difference in pump noise is night and day.  At idle, the noise is noticeably different.
 
Original GPU making "refrigerator compressor" noises.  45db at idle.
 
https://drive.google.com/...IvYTV/view?usp=sharing
 
New GPU making normal pump noise.  ~35-40db at idle, mostly due to case fans.
 
 https://drive.google.com/...ptlTp/view?usp=sharing
 
I'm very happy with the replacement.  Temps are around 40 C at idle, sometimes lower.  60 C under full load.
