I just mounted all my new stuff and was ready to fill in the water.
I then filled it with water, turned it on (only pump on) and it worked fine, then I filled more water and turned on again but then I saw a leak, at the pump (the fitting was not straight on) fixed that and now it's not working. Tried everything. There's power on the PSU, thats for sure...
Those pumps come really effed up sometimes from factory, contact the manufacturer and they'll help you out. I know someone whose pump was making ana wful noise and XSPC just sent him a new one, didn't even require him to send back the old one.
Make sure it is topped off with water and not filled halfway, if you don't finish filling up the res it makes some noise. if you top up the res and it's still loud you have a bad pump.
Mine are loud too. I contacted XSPC about it and sent them a video.. currently awaiting a reply from now. If your is loud like this : http://www.mediafire.com/?vot470h5xghy38a this is probably a bad one too
With the amount of issues report on OCN forums about this 720/750 pump, XSPC/RASA needs to get their pump supplier hopping on the quality and testing of each unit before they are shipped to the customer. This has not been a few random and isolated instances. Other forums have been reporting noise and pump failures as well.
I also had a noisy pump. I contacted xspc and they sent me a new pump which was also noisy. I think its just a crappy pump. Well I'm running 50/50 antifreeze and the pumps are silent. It does add a couple degrees compared to just distilled water. I'm running it like this until I can afford a better pump. Then its back to straight water.

Strange.. could it be really air in the pump that causing this ? ive heard from some other dude in another forum that his pump do the exact same sound as mine.. also i hear from others that after some week they don't hear it anymore.. dunno what to do now.
For the first week my pump was silent. Then it just started rattling. The replacement pump I got made noise too. Damn rattling sound. So I tried antifreeze I'm guessing since its thicker than water its pretty much muffling the noise.
I've tried water with the res out of my case with a tube from outlet to inlet sitting on a foam pad and they both rattle. Fill em with antifreeze and they're quiet.
