be quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX 360mm AIO Liquid Cooler Review

Exterior Packaging
I’ve never made much of a secret that I think be quiet! has always had something of a problem when it’s come to product packaging. Specifically, in terms of presentation. You see, be quiet! predominantly release black products. They also predominantly use black colouring on their box.
As such, if it wasn’t for the ARGB lighting, you probably wouldn’t get much of a look at the be quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX even despite the fact that they put it front and centre on their packaging. Still, with that lighting clearly visible, it certainly catches the eye.
The rear and sides of the packaging go into the technical specifications and features, and, in terms of the information presented, it pretty much covers everything you could want to know. My only real gripe is the fact that despite having a lot of space to use (it’s a big box), the writing and images are fairly small. It’s not bad, just not the best implementation of space.
Accessories!
The be quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX comes with all standard accessories you would expect from an AIO liquid cooler with a couple of exceptionally useful additions. In terms of the main parts, you get a nice high-quality glossy manual, all of the key parts to install your fans, and also the mounting components which are individual separated depending on whether you have an AMD or Intel socket.
A really useful addition is the inclusion of an ARGB and RPM hub controller. This allows you to easily connect all of your fans, and even the CPU block, to one central point. Although this doesn’t really solve the issue in terms of having masses of cables, it does at least help you to ensure that you can get everything all successfully hooked up in one place.
Finally, be quiet! also provides you with a surprisingly generous quantity of top-up coolant. In truth, this is probably more than you will ever need over the generic lifespan of an AIO liquid cooler. In terms of ensuring the be quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX can last as long as possible though, this is certainly an excellent addition.
