I suppose it is something that you can discuss with Cooler Master support. It is advertised as low noise. If it is new, you can return it.

Any air would be trapped at the highest point. I am guessing that the noise is actually the pump.

It is not noise, it is water sound.

Then maybe you are hearing the air being circulated in the closed loop.

Closed loop liquid coolers often make this sound, it is due to them not being 100% filled to capacity and there is some air space. If you shake a liquid cooler and hear sloshing, that means there is some air. Cooler Master even states this in their documentation - I know because I was reading through some last night while prepping to review the new ML240L RGB 240, likely the same cooler you mention above.
