Oops I have to ask Corsair for an apologize : when I powerdown my computer to put it on the table to film the noise that I have my pump was just silent (now I hear my four fans).

I have no idea why as I just powered if off and on again ???

I bought a molex to 3 pin adapter on ebay for $4, hooked it up to my mobo (Asus P8Z77-LE) and I controlled the pump with AI Suite II/ Fan Xpert2. I mapped it so the pump only goes up to around 1900 RPM under load and there is no grinding noise.

I put back my computer under my desk and wouah : I don't hear any sound from it, my new setup with the new H100 (1227...) is tremendous and keep my CPU cool :-)

If the lot number starts with "1227" or higher, then it should be a new unit manufactured under the new process.

I've PM'd George from Corsair and still no response after a week...terrific.

It's safe to many of the H100 sold in stores/online will still be prone to the problems in this 100+ page thread.

It's bad enough the only decent closed-loop water cooling solution I can have with my case is the H100 so I urge Corsair to speak up now before losing loyal customers.

Is it really the only one?

What about Asetek 570 LX? It's basically the H70 block with H100 RAD. IT also uses the AS synchronous motor like H50 and H70 did. I'd go for that if you don't want custom loop.

Thermaltake Water 2.0 is also based on Asetek, for example the Water 2.0 Extreme. It's the Asetek WaterChill 2011C, I didn't get into details on how it differs from the 570 LX but I think it's worth looking into.
AFAIK it's cheaper than H100 and the pump is more durable IMO.

Exactly, I was looking at the Thermaltake 2.0 Extreme, which is on sale at Microcenter for a lower price than the H100. I saw some excellent reviews on it as well.

Check out on NewEgg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835106190&Tpk=Thermaltake%202.0%20Extreme

So far, I have been running my H100 for a few weeks 24 hours and it has been OK. Guess I lucked on a good one, I won't RMA unless something crazy happens which I hope is not any leaks. tongue.gif
