Question Best Curve for AIO Pump Arctic Liquid Freezer 3 360?

Hey everyone,

I’m wondering whether it’s better to run my AIO pump at a constant speed (100%) or if I can set a fan curve to make it quieter when the system isn’t under load.

I asked GPT for a suggested pump curve, and this is what I got:

• <40°C → 30%
• 50°C → 50%
• 60°C → 75%
• >70°C → 100%

I’ve already set this curve in the BIOS—does this seem fine, or should I run the pump at a constant speed instead?

I also applied a similar fan curve to my VRM fan. Is that okay, or should I adjust it differently?

One thing I’ve noticed: when the fans are running quietly, I can hear a slight whizzing sound from the pump. Is this normal, or could it indicate an issue? Are there any ways to reduce this noise? Also every time I start up the PC, the Pump has a louder whizzing noise which immediatly goes quiet.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

I asked GPT

Don't do that.

But, moving on....
What temps are you currently seeing?

In AIO systems, the pump should be run at 100%.
The fans, variable.

So multi core cinebench r23 was peak temperature 85 degrees celsius with the curve I set in bios for pump

Gaming : black ops 6 (60-70 degrees averaging)
Hogwarts legacy (55 degrees average)

Yeah but at 100 % the pump is too noisy for me, so isn't there another way?
