The noise began today after my last PC use yesterday. It stays on the wall throughout the day without any movement. The sound resembles a fan rubbing against a cable, but it stops when I power off the machine and the fans still hum faintly. It seems to originate from the top part. What could be causing it?

It might be the pump in the AIO. Try disconnecting the AIO pump and then turning it back on. The CPU should handle this without issues; at most, leave it running briefly and it will shut down automatically if it overheats.

It might be the aio. No other part in that spot makes sound. When I tilt it so the top drops, the noise disappears and I hear a faint liquid sound that’s not visible in the video. The fan stops when I press my finger, which suggests the issue is with the aio. If you think it’s the aio, contact nzxt to check your warranty. Case confines won’t fit an air cooler, and the aio tube needs to be at least 35cm. IMG_1875.MOV Sorry, the video isn’t working. I don’t understand what I’m doing on my phone.

It seems the AIO might be experiencing an issue. Contact NZXT for guidance and check if they can provide a replacement.
