Hello, fellow pc enthusiasts! I recently got a new case and installed everything in it. Everything works fine but I hear water sounds from my AIO at random times, like sometimes when I power it on or off. The AIO is fine I know because in the old case it would never make such noises. I have attached images below, it'll be a big help if anyone could tell me if the radiator and pump positioning is fine or not.

Solution
That noise is likely the result of air collecting at the inlet side of the radiator. It inevitably happens as the fluid level goes down and the radiator is mounted like it is in the picture.

Flipping the radiator upside down should resolve it.

Thanks a lot for the reply! I was scared to death when I heard the noise. Also when I flip it upside down won't the tubes of the AIO rest on my GPU? I don't know if you can tell from the picture the GPU is very close to the cooler.
 
Ok so I flipped it and the tubes don't touch the GPU (Thank God!). Although, after I flipped it and started my PC again, I could hear the water noise again. Hopefully for the last time!
