Is my CoolerMaster MasterLiquid ML240L V2 defective?
I adjusted the CPU fan to voltage and set it at 100%. The AIO is connected but not yet configured for the processor. The default cooler is linked to sys_fan1. I moved the pump around, gave it a shake, and it still produces a high-pitched noise every 7-8 seconds, with some vibration felt occasionally. That’s the only time I notice movement.
I checked every other fan header to 100% and they functioned properly. However, any header connected to the pump displays 0 RPM or 0 Lpm, and the temperature shown in the image reflects the stock cooler with the processor installed. Still, that rattling persists occasionally, and the pump only shows brief vibration plus that short interruption. Spoiler: it’s still happening.
I plan to return the item. I’m considering getting the same model, wondering if this brand is known for it or if it was just a coincidence. In the meantime, the box had a small notch on one side—it didn’t look very sturdy, which might mean these items are fragile.
Hello, Just an update, returned that one, got a new one, and so far no weird high pitch pump noise, the pump chamber vibrates, I can barely feel it, and HWmonitor and the BIOS are now detecting the fan and giving me a rpm measurement, which wasn't happening before. There's a new small issue, it came like this, hopefully its just aesthetically and not a damaged tubbing, I have had it running outside the case got an hour now and no leaks, I think I'm keeping it but I'm a bit disappointed even if its a tinny thing. Edit: New one is wor king perfectly, max temp in cinebench is 71C, 160F, it was 92 C, 198 F with the stock AMD cooler. Thank you for your help. Spoiler
Hey guys, it's been more than a year I had the same issue with the same cooler with inter i9 13900k but I fixed it but it's kinda not a fix to reduce the temperature in bios I had to select box cooler in cooler runing and for it to not cross the temperature I turned on dtm which keeps the temperature below 50 when it's not in use and in stressful situations it goes around 70-80 but doesn't crashes anymore but I'm unable to utilise the full potential of my cpu so what do you guys think is it something I did wrong or this liquid cooler is not made for high end CPUs? I don't want to purchase an expensive cooler unless there is no fix for this issue.
