be quiet! Pure Loop 2 280MM AIO Cooler Review

be quiet! has been one of the best brands for high-end PC hardware, having some of the coolest, quietest, and most feature-packed PC cases, fans, coolers and power supplies since on the market. Obviously, with their brand name literally saying “be quiet” they’ve always had a focus on acoustic performance. However, from our own testing, they’ve always done rather well with actually cooling your components too, and that’s why I’m eager to check out their latest AIO series, the Pure Loop 2. I’m kicking things off with the 280mm model today, but we’ll explore other models in the coming weeks too.

be quiet! Pure Loop 2

The Pure Loop 2 looks fairly similar to their other AIO coolers, but that’s to be expected. What is different, however, lurks within the pump. It features a new doubly decoupled design, is now PWM controllable for the first time, and the ARGB LED is now customisable rather than a single-colour white LED on the old model. Furthermore, they have an exclusive new fan design, Pure Wings 3, which uses a closed-loop motor technology, which at the time of writing, cannot be purchased separately. These fans not only monitor the PWM signal, but the actual fan speed, and will increase or decrease to reach the true RPM required, rather than be at the mercy of any resistance from air pressure and other factors within your build; very clever stuff!

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
