I've seen lots of people saying it has pump noise and I'll never get and NZXT cooler again. So I've been leaning towards the h110i GT yet its $20 more expensive and I need a red or RGB 280mm liquid cooler. I'm look at the cooler master nepton 280L yet on Pcpartpicker rarely anyone uses cooler master liquid coolers. Also I've heard the h110i GT having leaking issues.

Unlike an aircoolers single source of noise, a CLC has 2 sources. The fans and the pump. Most pumps are relatively quiet, even silent, but some can get a somewhat noisy hum. Then there is the fans. Turn them up, they get loud. So do an aircoolers. Also, some designs are better than others. The older h100, even the newer h100i has miserably loud fans at max.

Yet I want a 280mm cooler and I would get the h105 or the h100i gtx over the h100i.
